Analyst Predicts 23 States for Tinubu's 2027 Victory
Political analyst Samuel Yusuf outlined 23 states where he believes President Tinubu could secure victory in the 2027 presidential election during an exclusive chat on October 30, 2026. He attributed his projections to factors such as governor defections, APC political structures, and opposition fragmentation.
Yusuf highlighted Bauchi as a potential gain for Tinubu, noting the APC's renewed political consolidation and the influence of figures like Professor Ali Pate, Senator Sheikh Yahaya Jingir, and Yakubu Dogara. In Kaduna, Governor Uba Sani's political machinery could help recover votes lost to Peter Obi in 2023.
The defection of Governor Agbu Kefas from the PDP to the APC in Taraba is expected to enhance grassroots access. Other states mentioned include Zamfara, Adamawa, Borno, Yobe, Jigawa, Kebbi, Katsina, Niger, Sokoto, Plateau, Benue, Kwara, Ekiti, Osun, Rivers, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom, Imo, and Edo, each with unique political dynamics favoring Tinubu.
