Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar criticized President Bola Tinubu's campaign strategy, calling the revised APC Presidential Campaign Council a "crowded confession of fear." The list of candidates, he argued, revealed Tinubu's perceived insecurity. Meanwhile, Minister Nyesom Wike warned APC governors that failure to deliver state progress could jeopardize Tinubu's 2027 re-election chances.
Adeleke, a prominent APC member, expressed confidence in Tinubu's leadership, stating he felt "victory coming in 2027." National Chairman Yilwatda urged Nigerians to support Tinubu's re-election, emphasizing his achievements since 2023. However, the Progressive Reform Party (PRP) accused the APC administration of failing to protect citizens, citing ongoing abductions and killings.
Former APC member El-Rufai accused Tinubu of abandoning the party's founding ideals, worsening Nigeria's conditions. Keyamo, a key figure, confronted Atiku over his criticism of Tinubu's government, calling him a "hypocrite." These tensions highlight growing divisions within the APC ahead of the 2027 elections.
The internal conflicts reflect broader challenges in maintaining unity and public trust as Tinubu seeks re-election. With multiple factions expressing concerns over leadership and governance, the political landscape remains volatile.
