Former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, has urged the opposition in Nigeria to unite and chase President Bola Tinubu from power in 2027.
He says Tinubu is making plans to become “president for life”.
He believes Tinubu’s plans can only be truncated if he is not allowed a second term.
El-Rufai made the call when he received a solidarity visit from former Vice President Atiku Abubakar in his residence on Saturday evening, September 20, a report by local media outlet, Linda Ikeji Blog, revealed.
“Honestly, to me, it’s a disgrace for people to behave the way they like. So it means that all the years of saying we are for democracy, NADECO, it was all pretence, fake. And all the claims that we’re fighting for true federalism and so on is all fake again because this government is trying to centralise everything instead of devolving power to the lower levels. But the sum total of this is that we’re facing an evil of such large proportion in the history of this country that if we don’t come together and end this Tinubu administration by 2027, Tinubu will try to become our Paul Biya, our president for life. All the signs are there. This is how Paul Biya started. So, we don’t have a choice,” he said.
