Former Minister of Interior and National Secretary of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Rauf Aregbesola, has revealed why President Bola Tinubu will lose the 2027 general elections.He stated that, regardless of the grandstanding of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, the African Democratic Congress, ADC, will take over the mantle of leadership in Nigeria and in most of the states.Aregbesola said this on Saturday in Ilorin while fielding questions in an interview with newsmen after the commissioning of the state secretariat of the party along Basin Road, Ilorin.“If APC is confident of its strength, it won’t be so hyped and charged as to be hounding and hunting opposition all over the place.“How can we interpret what APC is doing all over Nigeria to us? They are harassing and intimidating every one of our members, not just our leaders, but nationwide, be it Lagos, Kebbi, Kaduna.“If indeed they are confident of the strength they are showcasing, one would expect that they will be so calm, but the reverse is the case, so what does that tell you?“They themselves know that they are not popular, and the party that will harvest their unpopularity is ADC.“Regardless of the grandstanding, by the grace of God, ADC will take over the mantle of leadership in Nigeria and in most of the states,” he said.Weighing in on governors joining the ruling APC, the former Interior Minister said that those going to the APC were the enemies of the people.In the same vein, the immediate past governor of Kwara State, who dumped PDP to join ADC, Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed, told journalists that his party is prepared to take over the mantle of leadership in the country.
