Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, the Labour Party’s (LP) 2023 vice-presidential candidate, has said none of President Bola Tinubu’s major opponents in the 2027 presidential election has the capacity to improve Nigeria.
Baba-Ahmed, who was Peter Obi’s running mate in the 2023 presidential election, made the statement while speaking on the MicOn Podcast on Saturday.
Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), is seeking re-election in 2027, with Obi of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) and former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) among his major challengers.
Baba-Ahmed said the leading contenders had, at various times, been associated with political parties and administrations that he blamed for Nigeria’s current condition.
“I will simply advise uncle (Tinubu) to please prepare to hand over and move away, but not to the people contesting against him,” he said.
