2027: Amaechi breaks silence on ADC Presidential contest
Former Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi has declared that there is no going back on his intention to contest for the presidency in the 2027 election.
While interacting with journalists in Kano, Amaechi stated that the African Democratic Congress (ADC) primary election must be open to all, adding that he would not step down for anyone.
He added that the masses are the ones who will decide their leader.
“I will contest the ADC presidential primary, and by God’s grace, I hope to win so that I can face Tinubu in 2027.
“I am not stepping down for anyone. Let the people decide who they want to lead,” Amaechi stated.
Speaking further, Amaechi said Nigerians have had it with the Bola Tinubu administration, noting that citizens are suffering.
“Whether the government wants to conduct credible elections or not, one thing is certain—time is up. Nigerians are tired because no one is happy under Tinubu, not even in Rivers or across the South.
“He tries to frame it as a North-South contest, but the truth is people are suffering everywhere,” he said.
