2027: Only mad people will vote for Tinubu – Amaechi

African Democratic Congress (ADC) Vice Presidential Candidate, Rotimi Amaechi, has said only mad people will cast their ballot for President Bola Tinubu in 2027.

Speaking at town hall meeting in Edo State, on Thursday, Amaechi charged Edo residents to reject Tinubu and support the opposition party in the forthcoming election.

“They are going about saying ‘Vote Tinubu! Vote Tinubu!’ Only thieves can vote for Tinubu. In fact, I read a comment on social media where someone said, ‘It’s in 2027 that we will know how many mad men we have in Nigeria.”

“Because it’s only a mad people that can vote for Tinubu. If Edo people vote for President Tinubu, that means Edo people are mad. If you’re not mad, Tinubu should not win here,” he said.

The former Minister of Transportation also accused the Tinubu administration of pursuing projects based on alleged financial interests rather than what he described as the broader economic needs of Nigerians.

Amaechi particularly questioned the planned development of another seaport in Ogun State, asking whether the state generates sufficient cargo to justify additional port infrastructure.

“So, Tinubu just hates you. No, I’m not joking. If Tinubu does not hate you, why is he building another seaport? In Ogun, what are the goods we are producing? What goods are we producing to have as many as that number of seaports? It is not because he likes Ogun people. It is the money he will make out of the construction.”

He warned opposition supporters against staying away from the country or electoral process and expecting a change in government.

“If you want Tinubu to go, please go home. Go home. Go home,” he told supporters.
