The Allied People’s Movement (APM) said allowing President Bola Tinubu to win re-election in 2027 will be mortgaging Nigeria’s future.
APM in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary Abubakar Yusuf, pointed out that already the nation is reeling under the heavy external borrowing to the tune of $51.86 billion (about ₦74.43 trillion).
“Of course, this is not an administration that Nigerians deserve, and no patriotic Nigerian will descend into ignominy to stand against the majority of other citizens to call for the re-election of an administration under which there is no ray of hope for our nation,” the party stated.
It added that the nation is burdened by insecurity, unemployment, poverty, collapsed infrastructure and hopelessness.
According to the APM, those supporting the president’s despite his colossal failure, are discredited politicians and those seeking official cover for corruption charges.
The party described them as “ethically challenged and internationally disgraced characters, greedy and insensitive political jobbers who have lost face with Nigerians and cannot command genuine support for any candidate in an election.”
The APM said the All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Tinubu’s supporters know that the president cannot win in a free and fair election.
“This is the reason they are jittery over the rising popularity of the APM as a rallying opposition platform and our presidential candidate, Governor Seyi Makinde, who is now standing as the credible alternative to President Tinubu in the 2027 general elections,” the statement added.
The party said it is not distirbed but remains focused “especially as Nigerians, the victims of the APC misrule are rallying with our party and candidate in the quest to liberate our nation and set it on the path of economic prosperity, social stability and national cohesion.”
