Kenneth Okonkwo, campaign spokesperson for the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and a supporter of ADC presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, says President Bola Tinubu will not win Nigeria’s 2027 election.
Okonkwo makes the claim in an interview on Symfoni TV, arguing that after the 2027 vote Tinubu will be out of office. He describes the Tinubu administration as the worst in Nigeria’s history and says that, in his view, Tinubu would be unable to win states without electoral rigging. He also contrasts the 2023 campaign period, when he says their party had no governors and still did not win fewer states than Tinubu’s camp.
While both outlets report the same statements and their core reasoning, the coverage focuses on different emphases: one highlights the prediction that Tinubu will not win, while the other includes more detail about Okonkwo’s argument regarding rigging and past election performance.
