Tinubu Won’t Contest in 2027, if He’s A Smart Politician, Says  Datti Baba-Ahmed

Former LP Vice Presidential candidate Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed believes President Bola Tinubu will not seek re-election in 2027 if he is a smart politician.

Baba-Ahmed stated this on Arise Television’s political program, ‘Prime Time,’ on Friday.

He claimed that Tinubu’s time is up, adding that everything is there for the president and the ruling All Progressives Party, APC, to see that they would lose in 2027.

“I expect Tinubu to throw in the towel if he is that smart politician that he turns out to be,” Baba-Datti said.

Baba-Datti also claimed that Tinubu started presenting presidential candidates in 2007, “culminating in his electoral heist in 2023.”

He said, “He skipped 2007 and jokingly made Atiku (presidential) candidate, made Ribadu and somebody 2011, made Buhari in 2015, Buhari won, and then skipped 2019 and they stole 2023.

“If he is that smart, everything is there for him that he’s going to lose 2027.”
