Tinubu Allegedly Planning to Replace Running Mate for 2027 Presidency, Ayodele Warns of APC Tensions

Spiritual leader Elijah Ayodele has claimed that Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a potential presidential candidate, is contemplating replacing Kashim Shettima with a governor as his running mate for the 2027 Nigerian elections. Ayodele warns that this move could deepen internal tensions within the All Progressives Congress (APC).

He accuses Tinubu's camp of restricting access to the president and blocking genuine assistance, raising concerns about Nigeria's security affairs. Ayodele also cautions against selecting a governor who recently defected from the APC as Tinubu's running mate, as it could provoke tensions in the northern region.

The cleric criticizes Tinubu's administration for facing challenges and betrayals, urging the need to address security issues effectively.
