Opposition parties cannot stop Tinubu in 2027’

The Disciples of Jagaban (DOJ), a group that supports President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, have denied the ability of opposing political parties to overthrow Tinubu, even with joined forces, ahead of the 2027 presidential election.Comrade Abdulhakeem Adegoke Alawuje, the National Coordinator of DOJ, promised in a statement that: "The reorganisation of opposition politicians whose shared goal is simply to overthrow President Tinubu, regardless of the nobleness of the reforms being undertaken, cannot stand the test of time."

The gathering of politicians who are unreliable and untrustworthy will not be able to stop Tinubu’s reelection in 2027.

The leaders of this emerging group are simply Tinubu’s enemies who do not have what it takes to dislodge him from office and whose ultimate intention is self-serving, narrow and parochial.

“It is interesting to note that while credible and notable opposition members are beginning to embrace Tinubu because of his courage and bold steps being taken, some frustrated and self-centred APC members are conniving with desperate opposition to reinvent new opposition. 

Opposition leaders may be making a costly mistake by assuming that the drama of 2015, where the PDP was decimated in order to dislodge former President Goodluck Jonathan from office could be repeated in 2027.

They must remember that it was the same Tinubu who was largely  behind the success of the 2015 episode. They therefore need a lot to learn politically before they could confront someone like Jagaban Borgu who became victorious in 2023 Presidential election against all odds.

“Members of the emerging opposition are therefore advised to enrol themselves in the Jagaban political school of thought as learners. They should be aware that the DOJ and the entire gamut of the Tinubu campaign team are watching and are ahead of their scheme.

“As far as members of the Disciples of Jagaban are concerned, we do not see any threat from this group. They are busy wasting time and resources towards 2027. It is rather unfortunate that the view APC members among them are those who cannot survive out of office for just two years without political appointment.

But why can’t they copy the attitude of President Tinubu who did not hold political office and away from the corridors of power for good 16 years. Yet he busy himself strategising and consulting for his political ambitions.

“How then should we explain the phenomenon  of those who have been two term governors, ministers or National Assembly members rocking the boat because they just needed to join the queue of political reward system. Is political offices the birthright of anyone of them?

“The Disciples of Jagaban has already launched its campaign for Tinubu’s second term in office, as far back as 2023. It is therefore imperative on those who have taken one responsibility or the other, as well as those yet unrewarded by the government to follow suite “.
