Former Minister of Youths and Sports Development, Solomon Dalung, has expressed confidence that the opposition coalition under the umbrella of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) can defeat President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 election.

He warned Tinubu that he may be forced to return to Lagos after just one term in office.

Dalung, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), gave the warning in an interview with the Nigerian Tribune on Saturday.

According to him, the failure of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to meet Nigerians’ expectations has opened the door for new political forces like the ADC.

“Tinubu may come to the conclusion that he should be preparing to return to Lagos by May 29, 2027,” Dalung said.

He asserted that Nigerians are tired of the worsening economic hardship, insecurity, and poor governance, adding that this will lead to a demand a new political direction.

Dalung dismissed President Tinubu’s earlier description of the ADC as a camp for internally displaced politicians, saying the party is fast emerging as one of the strongest platforms ahead of the 2027 general elections.

“The ADC is not just another minor opposition party. We are building a movement that will shock even the most doubtful Nigerians,” he said.

Although he did not unveil specific strategies, the former minister explained that the ADC is in talks with stakeholders across the country and will present credible candidates who can challenge the current system.

FLAME & FURY Shocking moment Texas election candidate Valentina Gomez BURNS Quran with a flamethrower as she vows to ‘end Islam’

Gomez has previously filmed herself torching two LGBTQ books

THIS is the shocking moment a Republican Texas election candidate shared footage of herself torching the Quran with a flamethrower in a vile Islamophobic campaign ad.

In the video, Valentina Gomez claims her goal is to “end Islam” in Texas – despite Muslims making up just one per cent of the state’s population.

Gomez, who is running in the GOP primary for Texas’ 31st congressional District, caused outrage after posting the video of herself burning a copy of the Muslim holy book on X on Monday.

She is heard saying in the video: “America is a Christian nation, so those terrorist Muslims can *** to any of the 57 Muslim nations.

“There is only one true God, and that is the God of Israel.”

This is not Gomez’s first display of Islamophobic views.

Politician and APC chieftain, Adamu Garba, says the biggest beneficiary of the return to Democracy in Nigeria is the South West.

In a post shared on X, Adamu examined all the regions that have had a go at the Presidency and Vice Presidency and according to him, the South West and the North West are the beneficiaries.

He went on tio state that the South East and the North East have had zero representatives occupy the number one and two positions, He asked if this can be corrected as Nigeria heads to the polls in 2027. His post reads

‘’Current Discussion and Permutations within the Political Elites in Nigeria. North-South Presidency. By 2027:

1. The South would have had 18 years of Presidency of Nigeria since 1999

2. The North would have had 10 years.

For VP.

1. The North would have had 18 years on a VP slot while the South would have had 10 years.

Deep dive into the regions.Nigerian fashion trends

South:

1. South West would have had 12 years of Presidency

2. South South would have had 6 years of Presidency

3. South East would have 0 years of the Presidency.

North:

4. North West would have had 10 years of Presidency

5. North East would have had 0 years of Presidency

6. North Central would have had 0 years of Presidency.

For VP slot:

South:

1. South West would have had 8 years of VP

2. South South would have had 2 years of VP

3. South East would have had 0 years of VP.

North:

4. North West would have had 6 years of VP

5. North East would have had 12 years of VP

6. North Central would have had 0 years of VP.

Thus, the biggest beneficiaries of the Fourth Republic are the South West. They would have had 12 years of Presidency and 8 years of VP from the entire Southern Slot.

The second beneficiaries are the North West, with 8 years of Presidency and 6 years of VP slot, from the entire Northern slot.

Then the South South with 6 years Presidency and 2 years VP.

Then the North East with 12 years of VP.

Meanwhile, the regions less fortunate are the South East and North Central, both with 0 years of Presidency and VP.

A lot of questions are currently being asked: When south is mentioned in political equations, where is south really? Are all south onboard with the current arrangement?

Also the North, where is North really? are all north onboard with the current northern arrangement?

When the two whole zones have zero participation in the whole system, can the current arrangement be truly inclusive?

Is there a better way to evolve a new structure as we approach the 2027 election where regions hitherto excluded can find a better position at the table?

Yes, democracy is a game of numbers, but would inclusivity become a centerpiece in the name of national unity and cohesiveness?

More questions than answers. We shall see how it goes.
