A former chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Sunday Udeh-Okoye, has predicted a landslide victory for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 presidential election.
According to Okoye, the APC would win the 2027 presidential election in Enugu State, even with Peter Obi on the ballot as the candidate of any other party.
The former PDP National Secretary, who recently dumped the party for the APC, Obi won the 2023 presidential election in Enugu State because the APC had no structure in the state.
“In the next election, it will be a landslide for the APC in Enugu,” he declared.
Asked if the APC could win the presidential election in Enugu if Peter Obi is on the ballot, the former PDP chieftain said the ruling party would win “no matter who is on the ballot.”
Udeh-Okoye declared that the APC is totally in control of Enugu State and no other party can win elections there.
“Those who win election for the party as at that moment, we were not in APC, now all of us are in APC…anybody you like field in any political party, I assure you in Enugu State APC will win,” he stressed.
He also dismissed claims that the southeast would not vote for the APC, insisting that the region’s perceived aversion to the ruling party was due to former President Muhammadu Buhari’s alleged disposition towards the region.
Udeh-Okoye also claimed that another Southeast governor will soon join the APC.
When asked which of the two non-APC states in the Southeast will soon join the ruling party, he said, “I don’t know.”
