Senator Biodun Olujimi, has bared her mind on President Bola Tinubu and how difficult it will be for any opposition party to defeat him in the 2027 general election.
She said: “This is the first time we are having a dyed-in-the-wool politician as a politician. He knows his onions, he knows all of us, he’s been in the system for a very long time. It’ll be tough to beat him.”
“This is a man who has worked with everyone, who has been useful to everyone, who has had opportunities to assist government beating him? Uphill task.”
“Well, the PDP journey was a very long journey. It was pleasurable at first, but then it became very torturous and very problematic. And so it was time to move on. It was time to re-energise. It was time to reorder priorities.”
“I have always been a proponent of government taking very tough decisions and standing behind those tough decisions. This is the first time I will see a government take tough decisions, stand by it, and run with it. And that is the reason for which I have decided to pitch my tent.”
For those who don’t know, Olujimi was a former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain. She dumped the PDP to join the All Progressives Congress (APC).
