The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has cautioned the opposition against distracting President Bola Tinubu with what it termed “needless politicking and manufactured drama.”
Seye Oladejo, the spokesman of the APC in Lagos State, warned that 2027 is not about confused coalitions or political experiments.
He was reacting to the ADC’s charge to former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi on the need to make up his mind about joining the coalition.
In a statement he signed, Oladejo said: “At this critical juncture, it has become expedient to warn the opposition to stop distracting Bola Ahmed Tinubu with needless politicking and manufactured drama.
“There is no dispute about the enormous national challenges before the nation, and President Tinubu remains steadily, courageously and competently poised to overcome them for the collective betterment of Nigerians.
The All Progressives Congress, APC, as the ruling party, has no reason to jump the gun on electioneering. Our numerous achievements across infrastructure, economy, security, social investment, education, health, transportation and national reforms will speak loudly for us at the appropriate time.
“The opposition, on the other hand, has nothing to offer but recycled slogans and empty promises, deceptions that Nigerians can now see through with clarity and experience.”
Oladejo said that while the opposition fights itself in broad daylight, APC remains focused on governance, economic recovery, security stabilisation, infrastructure expansion and national renewal under the firm and steady leadership of Tinubu.
He added: “Let the records show it clearly, 2027 is not for confused coalitions, 2027 is not for political experiments, 2027 is for prepared leadership.
“The ADC–Obi face-off is no longer an internal disagreement. It is now a public confession of collapse. Opposition in full-blown confusion, indeed.”
He noted that Obi does not want to compete but positions himself like a “panther, stalking political parties in distress to strike when desperation peaks.”
