Tinubu Will Defeat Jonathan In 2027, Win Over 32 States – Abejide

During an interview on the Mic podcast with Seun Okinbaloye, lawmaker Abejide predicted that Bola Tinubu would defeat Goodluck Jonathan in the 2027 presidential election and secure victory in over 32 states. Abejide, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), warned against Jonathan's potential return to the race, stating that the political landscape favored Tinubu.

He highlighted Tinubu's popularity, citing his recent travels across the North as evidence of continued support. Jonathan, who completed one term as president before losing to Muhammadu Buhari in 2015, has been the subject of speculation regarding a possible 2027 bid.

Abejide's comments suggest a growing belief in Tinubu's political prospects and influence.
