Kenneth Okonkwo, who was a former spokesperson for the Labour Party (LP) presidential campaign council in the 2023 elections, has stated that no singular person, no matter who they are, can defeat President Tinubu in the 2027 general election.
The actor-turned-politician stated this when he appeared on Channels TV on Sunday, April 27.
“Nelson Mandela said it always appears impossible until it happens. I may not guarantee an alliance between Peter Obi and Atiku, but as we move to 2027, I know that there will be a coalition. Whether it would be between Peter Obi and Atiku, I don’t know. But there would be a coalition. Why? Because that would be the only choice the opposition has to make an impact.”
Asked if Tinubu is unbeatable without a coalition against him, Okonkwo answered in the affirmative, saying “outrightly,” adding that “he would just walk into it”.
‘’No one single candidate can be Tinubu alone… and the reason is this. In Nigeria, we have entered into the unfortunate situation that you would not only win, but you have to secure your victory. So, you need the elite to secure your victory even if the people vote for you. Nigerian home decor ideas
If the elites come together like they did in 2014 to confront Goodluck Jonathan in 2015, they will unseat Tinubu in 2027,” he added.
