Galadima Claims Fayemi Leads Opposition Against Tinubu

Buba Galadima, a chieftain of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), stated that former Governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi, is collaborating with seven others to oppose President Bola Tinubu's re-election in the 2027 elections. During an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Galadima expressed confidence that the NDC's presidential candidate, Peter Obi, would secure victory if the elections are conducted fairly.

He emphasized that their group, coordinated by Fayemi, is actively working towards defeating Tinubu, stating, “To defeat Tinubu.” In response to Galadima's claims, Lere Olayinka, a media aide to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, expressed skepticism and stated he would not believe the assertion unless Fayemi publicly refutes it.
