The South West Agenda for Asiwaju, a foremost support group for President Bola Tinubu, has said that the President is guaranteed a landslide victory in 2027.
The group recently revealed that the election result will deliver the widest margin in the history of Nigeria’s politics.
Speaking during a news conference to unveil SWAGA 2.0, the group’s mobilisation strategy, National Chairman, Senator Dayo Adeyeye, shared that reports saying the North would not support Tinubu’s re-election in 2027 are a mere myth.
According to him, Nigerians should ignore politicians who keep playing to the gallery ahead of the election because they have nothing tangible to offer.
He stated that Tinubu has performed even beyond expectations by not bowing to political pressure and confronting the nation’s problems squarely.
“We are not afraid, it is going to be the greatest landslide victory in the history of the republic even in northern Nigeria.
“Nigerians should not allow those playing to the gallery to deceive them, they couldn’t do anything in their states when they were in government.
We have not been disappointed, honestly. Tinubu has performed even beyond our expectations because we had thought he would succumb to political pressure and would not be able to carry out his campaign promises.
He has confronted everything head-on and he is doing it. Tinubu is a courageous leader. He doesn’t think like a politician, but like a statesman who thinks about the next generation,” he said.
He further noted that Northern leaders are very happy with Tinubu’s giant strides, stressing that they would definitely support the President in 2027.
Adeyeye concluded by saying that the North has at least 3 geopolitical zones, and different parts of the region belong to various political parties.
“We must be wary of the myth that Northerners will not vote. The North has at least three geo-political zones. They don’t always go the same way all the time.
The North has never voted as a monolith. North is not one political entity. Every part decides its own political fate.
The interests are not the same. Different parts of the North belong to different political parties. I laugh when people say the North will not vote for Tinubu in 2027, there is a diversity of interests in the North,” he added.
