Former President Goodluck Jonathan, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi, according to legislator Orji Kalu, who represents the Abia North Senatorial District, will not be able to defeat President Bola Tinubu in the general elections of 2027.
This optimism was expressed by the former state lead representative of Abia State in an interview session.
According to Kalu, Tinubu has done a commendable job of leading Nigeria’s economy and government, and his accomplishments and political clout would ensure that he wins the upcoming general elections.
“None of these people parading can defeat President Tinubu,” Kalu said.
“We know ourselves. All of us know ourselves. What are they going to offer Nigerians that we are not offering?”
When asked if Jonathan, Atiku, and Obi are among the politicians he referred to, he said, “Whatever you call them, none of them can defeat Tinubu.”
Additionally, the lawmaker warned former President Goodluck Jonathan against running for president again, citing constitutional prohibitions.
“If I’m President Jonathan, I will not think of running for election because first of all, he is constitutionally banned by law; nobody can do more than eight years. If I’m Goodluck Jonathan, I will just be the statesman that I am.” Kalu said.
