Ex-President Muhammadu Buhari’s former aide, Lauretta Onochie, has debunked suggestions that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will achieve a landslide victory in the 2027 general election.

Onochie said: “There’s a rumour in Nigeria being peddled by those who were once progressives but now celebrate impunity and lawlessness.”

“They are bragging that INEC will rig the 2027 presidential election for President Tinubu. Dem no fit!”

“There will be a new President in May 2027. Votes will count in 2027, just as they did in 2015. It’s nothing but psychological warfare aimed at discouraging Nigerians from active participation in our democracy. We will give them a run for their money.”

Onochie, who also served as Chairman of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) is a prominent figure in the opposition coalition under the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
