Nobody Can Defeat Tinubu In 2027–Umahi

David Umahi

The Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi, has again called on the South East to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027.

He said it is illusional for any party or anybody to insinuate defeating President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027.

Umahi, while addressing a press conference in Abuja, said the president has done an unprecedented road project that would hand him re-election.

THE WHISTLER recalls that the minister recently said that the achievements of the president and the roads infrastructure in the South East would give him 90 per cent votes in the region.

However, his assertion generated negative reactions with some groups saying that he could not speak for the region.

Defending his position, he called on the people of the South East region to allow the president to complete his tenure, saying that an Igbo man would not take the
presidency for four years.

Rather, Umahi said an Igbo man would take the presidency for eight years like other Nigerians.

He described as an illusion the suggestion that an Igbo man would serve as president for four years.

Umahi said, “The Bible says that at the time of God, He makes all things beautiful. You don’t abort a pregnancy in the middle of the pregnancy. This is a pregnancy of APC, whose time has come, and this return must be allowed to be completed.

“An Igbo man is not going to take the presidency for four years, we will take the
presidency for eight years like others. Anybody telling you that if he takes the presidency for now, he will do four years is an illusion that would not work.

‘You know it is also good to have hope because without hope, life is useless. So, those who are hoping that they can take residency from President Tinubu are living in an illusion which is keeping them alive. It is not a reality.

“It can’t work because there has been a lot of work. For instance, South East would not allow this vision of road construction in the South East to be terminated. At the time of God, he makes all things beautiful, just believe me that our time will come.

“That is my answer, and the truth is that as an Igbo man, let us tell ourselves the basic truths, if we all vote for Dave Umahi because I am one of the most qualified in the South East, it would not make me president”.
