A former presidential spokesman, Doyin Okupe has said Nigerians will vote for President Bola Tinubu again in 2027. Okupe, a former campaigner for Labour Party’s Peter Obi, said the T-Pain nickname given to Tinubu on social media only means Temporary Pain. Okupe stated this as a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Monday.
He said there is an unspoken agreement on rotational presidency between the southern and northern regions. He said former President Muhammadu Buhari, who according to him, did not do well, completed eight years and now that Tinubu “is doing well”, he would use his eight years. “Nigerians will decide so. I am sure. Nigerians are reasonable, sensible people, not demanding too much from their leaders,” Okupe said confidently a day after he met with the President in Abuja.
“If Bola Tinubu gives us light in 2027, if Bola Tinubu resolves this fuel crisis and this food crisis between now and that time, you’ll see that people will go on the streets and say it’s Bola or nobody,” he added. Okupe said the T-Pain nickname given to Tinubu on social media “means temporary pain that will lead to an extensive, pleasant and something good for the nation”. DaILY POST reports that Nigerians are battling with the country’s unprecedented inflation in decades.
