Dalung To Tinubu: Even If You Appoint Your Son As INEC Chairman, You’ll Be Defeated In 2027

A former Minister of Sports and Youth Development, Solomon Dalung, says the 2027 general elections will be a battle between Nigerians and President Bola Tinubu’s government.

In an appearance on News Central, Dalung said President Tinubu will not be re-elected during the next elections, even if he appoints his son, Seyi, as the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

He criticised the current administration, accusing it of worsening the living conditions of Nigerians.

The former minister argued that the only way to salvage the country is for political leaders in opposition parties to rally under the newly formed African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition to take on the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the next election cycle.

Dalung said: “Like I promised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, even if the 36 state governors of Nigeria defect to the APC and he appoints Seyi Tinubu as the chairman of INEC and maybe appoints his wife as the Chief Justice of Nigeria, they will be defeated in 2027.

“Because it is us against them. Nigerians should buckle for 2027, because the battle line has been drawn by the government of President Tinubu, which has declared war against the Nigerian people.

“The government has weaponized poverty, hunger and hardship.

“The only option we have now is to align with the coalition movement to reposition ourselves and confront the government in 2027.”
