Saliu Mustapha Confident of Defeating AbdulRazaq in 2027
Senator Saliu Mustapha, representing Kwara Central, stated his confidence in defeating the incumbent Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq in the upcoming 2027 governorship election. In an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, hosted by Seun Okinbaloye, Mustapha asserted he would win the contest “before 12 noon.” He announced his intention to leave the All Progressives Congress (APC) to pursue the governorship ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Mustapha emphasized that his decision was not made in isolation but was a collective choice involving members of the G15 political group. He also claimed that Governor AbdulRazaq has been threatened by his popularity, suggesting that the governor's concerns about Mustapha's political influence have contributed to their strained relationship.
