Aiyedatiwa predicts 36-state victory for Tinubu in 2027

Ondo State Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has expressed confidence that President Bola Tinubu will win the 2027 presidential election across all 36 states of the federation.

 

Aiyedatiwa made the statement during the inauguration of SWAGA 2.0, organised by the Southwest Agenda for Asiwaju, in Akure, the Ondo State capital.

 

He described such a victory as unprecedented in Nigeria’s political history, noting that no presidential candidate has ever secured all 36 states.

 

The governor attributed his optimism to what he described as the President’s performance in office, particularly in stabilising the economy and implementing reforms across key sectors.

 

He also cited ongoing political realignments, including defections by some opposition figures, as evidence of growing national support for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

 

In his remarks, the chairman of the group, Dayo Adeyeye, also predicted a landslide victory for the President, saying Tinubu’s policies have positively impacted Nigerians.

 

The convener of the group, Oyetunde Ojo, added that the campaign initiative aims to mobilise support for the President’s second-term bid.

 

The event forms part of early political activities ahead of the 2027 general elections.
