Former Minister of Youth and Sports Development and African Democratic Congress (ADC) chieftain Solomon Dalung has predicted that President Bola Tinubu would lose the 2027 presidential election no matter who runs against him, even if the opponent were simply “anybody picked on the street.”
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Thursday, Dalung described Tinubu as the weakest sitting president he has ever seen heading into an election.“I have never seen a weak president in an election like Bola Ahmed Tinubu. If you drag anybody on the street and put him on a ballot at a contest with Tinubu, he will defeat him,” he said.
Dalung claimed the President is already fearful of facing the electorate after nearly four years in office. He challenged the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to allow a free contest at the ballot box.“Bola Tinubu is so scared, having been in office for four years, he is so scared of election. And all we are seeing in ADC, let’s meet at the ballot. You claim it was the ballot that brought you to power, let’s meet at the ballot,” he stated.
The ADC chieftain also accused the APC of frustrating opposition campaigns by shutting down rally venues, taking over hotels, and sealing party offices. He argued that such tactics would ultimately backfire.
According to him, forcing the opposition onto the streets has only strengthened their cause because the crowds attending ADC events are genuine supporters, not hired crowds. He insisted these organic followers are the voters who will decide the 2027 election.Dalung maintained that the ADC is fully prepared to challenge Tinubu at the polls.
