“Tinubu May Not Contest in 2027” – APC Chieftain Says
A top APC chieftain in Rivers State and close associate of former governor Rotimi Amaechi, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has claimed that President Bola Tinubu may not even be in the race for the 2027 presidential election. Eze hinted that major twists could shake up the 2027 polls, especially if the United States decides to release a reported file on the President. He also believes that Amaechi is the best man to challenge Tinubu should the President choose to run.
According to Eze, many Nigerians are already reaching out to him regularly, eager to know Amaechi’s political plans and if he will throw his hat into the ring for 2027. In his words, the questions keep coming: “Is Amaechi running?”, “Does he have interest?”, “What is his direction for 2027?”
Eze, who once served as National Publicity Secretary of the now-defunct nPDP, said these concerns reflect growing dissatisfaction with the current government, which he accuses of focusing more on clinging to power than fixing the country’s deep-rooted problems.
“A government that is obsessed with staying in power despite widespread hunger, economic hardship, insecurity, and daily killings has clearly lost touch with the people,” he said. “That’s not leadership.
That’s not democracy.”
He said it’s no surprise that Nigerians are looking toward Amaechi, whom he described as a symbol of hope and competence. “Amaechi has the experience, the courage, and the track record,” Eze stated. “If anyone can help steer Nigeria out of this mess, it’s him. He’s always ready to put the country first.”
Additionally, Eze noted that 2027 might take everyone by surprise, and Tinubu may not even make it to the ballot if the alleged U.S. file sees the light of day. “With the way things are going, the failures of this administration alone should be enough to make any talk of re-election a non-starter,” he concluded.
Tonye Cole speaks out on Governor Siminalayi Fubara’s emergence and continuation as the Governor of Rivers State.
He shared his thoughts, saying the governor likely consulted with his close allies before making key decisions.
“My assumption is that the governor would have gone with his own close allies, discussed with them, and said that this is the best way, that he has to move forward for the next six months or thereabouts of his administration. I would assume that’s what he did.”
“But I am not in his chamber, so I wouldn’t know. But that’s what I would assume he would do.”
He added “But having taken the responsibility to come and finish his term, then he has to finish it in the way that allows him to govern. He can’t go back into fighting.”
Politician and former President Olusegun Obasanjo speaks on Nigeria and shares that the possibility of Nigeria surviving another civil war is quite low.
He revealed that the issues that led to the Biafra War have not been resolved and that if another war breaks out, it will be much harder to resolve.
Reflecting on the civil war, he shared “The conditions that led to the Nigerian civil war years ago still remain unresolved.”
“I was involved in the civil war, but whenever people ask me about the Asaba massacre, I always tell them I cannot give details because Murtala Muhammed was responsible for operations in that area.”
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose pleads with the government and President Tinubu that the minimum wage needs to be increased.
He shared that the current minimum wage of ₦70,000 is not enough considering the current state of the country and urged the government to increase it to ₦200,000.
“President Tinubu, have mercy on our people and increase the minimum wage to ₦200,000 now. I don’t think anyone can survive on the current ₦70,000 minimum wage. ₦70,000 is nothing. If we don’t solve the minimum wage problem, we can’t solve crime.”
