The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has asked President Bola Tinubu to begin preparing his handover note, insisting that Nigerians will not renew his mandate in 2027.
Speaking at the PDP state secretariat in Yola on Friday, the Organising Secretary of the Adamawa State chapter of the party, Hamza Madagali, said Nigerians had lost patience with the current administration.
He accused the All Progressives Congress of lacking vision and direction, describing its policies as “human and economic unfriendly.”
“Nigerians are ready to end the leadership of the present government, come 2027,” Madagali said.
The PDP chieftain pointed to the party’s successful ward congresses in Adamawa as a sign of growing unity that could translate into electoral victory.
“If you look at the membership of the National Convention committees, it is clear that the days of the APC are numbered at the presidency. Nigerians are wiser now; they now know the difference between original and fake. So, they cannot afford to gamble with the future of their children, and the only way out is to return the PDP back to power,” he declared.
Reacting, an APC chieftain, Seye Oladejo, dismissed PDP’s chances of unseating President Tinubu, arguing that defections from the opposition party show it is losing relevance.
“I agreed that he should, but he should be handing over to himself again as the president after the 2027 elections. PDP is just a party that exists on paper,” Oladejo said.
He accused the PDP of inconsistency in its zoning arrangements and claimed the 2027 elections would finally bury the party.
“In whichever way, the party is gone. A party that recently zoned its tickets not minding the provision of the 1999 Constitution as amended, and later they said they had made it open. It is not a party to take seriously. Talk is cheap. The 2027 elections will be the final days of the PDP,” he added.
