Rotimi Amaechi, an African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential running mate, says he would leave his wife if she became president and ruled the way President Bola Tinubu does. He presents the claim as being driven by political performance rather than personal loyalty, arguing that emotional attachment would not stop him from opposing poor leadership.

Across the reports, Amaechi discusses how voters should evaluate candidates. Nigerian Eye adds that he urges Nigerians to set aside religious, ethnic and party considerations and to reject Tinubu in the 2027 election based on his record. It also includes Amaechi’s view that Tinubu’s team has already been tested, while his own side is not yet proven at the presidential level.

Vanguard’s coverage is limited to restating the central remark about leaving his wife if her governance mirrored Tinubu’s, without expanding on election-related arguments. Daily Post Nigeria similarly focuses on the personal statement and the idea that he would detach himself if Tinubu-like governance continued.
