Arise News anchor, Rufai Oseni has popped a big question about the chances of President Bola Tinubu in the forthcoming 2027 general elections.
Speaking during an Arise Television’s ‘Morning Show’ on Tuesday, Rufai asked if Tinubu will still be able to hold the North, which gave him more than 62 per cent of his total votes in the 2023 election.
His question comes as Tinubu expanded his 2027 campaign visits beyond the first 12 states he started with.
According to Rufai, the North was the backbone of Tinubu’s victory in 2023, adding that without the North, Tinubu would not have won.
He asked if the President has done enough to keep that support, stressing many people in the North are complaining about hardship, insecurity, and hunger.
He said the expansion of the campaign visits shows that Tinubu himself knows he needs to do more work in the North.
The broadcaster also stated that the President is now moving from state to state to beg for support again.
Rufai said the question now is not about the number of states Tinubu visits but whether the people still believe in him.
He said if the North turns against Tinubu in 2027, it will be very hard for him to win again.
