The Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has warned President Bola Tinubu that he might be sacked in 2027 if he failed to address the escalating insecurity, extreme poverty and hardships in the country.

The body also warned that Northern governors mightultimately disappoint Tinubu’s expectations during the 2027 elections, siding instead with their constituents, who feltalienated from his policies.

In a statement by the Deputy President General of the body, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, Ohanaeze Ndigbo noted that Nigerians were enduring overwhelming suffering and if their grievances remained unaddressed, a revolt against Tinubu’s administration through the ballot box would be a reality.

Isiguzoro said, “Southern governors will likely remain divided, attempting to navigate their political survival at the expense of their support for your agenda. This division will complicate the efforts required to secure your backing in their respective states.”

He stressed that the federal government must confront the harsh truths surrounding worsening insecurity, relentless hunger, and extreme poverty that have now reached intolerable levels.

“The devastating effects of hunger, insecurity, and poverty have reached a point where they will impede the ability of all 36 governors to secure your reelection.

“Many of these governors are offering nothing but false promises, leading you to believe they can deliver their states to the APC while existing in a perilous ‘fool’s paradise’.

“It is essential to recognise that some of the more astute Northern governors may engage in duplicitous tactics that could undermine your political future,” the group warned.

It, therefore, implored Tinubu to take decisive steps to reduce electricity tariffs, reevaluate economic advisory teams, cut wasteful expenditures, and invest substantially in agriculture and infrastructure.
