Oyo Gov. sets to unseat Tinubu, declares for 2027 Presidency
The political landscape in Nigeria is taking a new dimension as Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has officially declared his intention to run for the office of president in 2027.
Makinde made the official declaration during a Unity rally jointly organized by the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and All People’s Movement (APM) to formalize the alliance between the two parties.
The governor called on opposition leaders to unite against what he described as a deliberate effort by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to redirect Nigeria to a one-party state.
He maintained that Nigeria no longer operates a democracy without a political landscape that guarantees a level playing ground for opposition parties without the interference of the ruling party.
He equally called on Nigerians to rise above being what he described as political spectators and bystanders, assuring that with the collective participation of all Nigerians of eligible age for voting, Nigeria would record a historic reset come 2027.
