2027: APC Wooing Opposition With Bribes, Galadima Alleges

A prominent figure in the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Buba Galadima, has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) government of attempting to bribe opposition leaders in preparation for the 2027 elections.

Galadima spoke as he expressed his strong disapproval of comments made by George Akume, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), regarding the upcoming election.

In an interview with Arise TV on Monday, Galadima urged Nigerians to rise to the challenge and work towards changing the government in 2027. He emphasized that the focus should not be on whether the next president comes from the North or South, but on saving the country from the current APC-led adm rather inistration. He stated, “I wouldn’t want to discuss Nigerian issues on the basis of north and south. I’m a nationalist. What the people feel now in their body will determine the way they vote in 2027. There is a big vacancy; in fact, there is nobody occupying that seat in 2027, according to the Nigerian constitution, so Akume’s assertion is only laughable.”

Galadima further claimed that the APC government is using intimidation tactics to prevent citizens from demanding change. He accused the government of sending emissaries to opposition leaders, offering large sums of money in an effort to secure their support for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid. “There is no amount of intimidation by anybody, even amount of killing by anybody that will stop Nigerians from producing an alternative presidential candidate to run,” he said.

He also revealed that the APC is allegedly offering billions of naira to opposition leaders in exchange for their allegiance to the current government’s agenda, hoping to create a scenario where no other candidate would emerge in 2027. “We know as of today that this government in APC are sending emissaries to compromise leaders of political parties, offering tens of billions to leaders of the parties,” Galadima stated.

Despite these efforts, Galadima stressed that Nigerians must unite to ensure a change of government in 2027. He expressed his belief that through the power of the ballot box, African nations can make significant changes. “I’m extremely happy that, through the ballot box, Africans can change the government. In this country, all of us must stand up to ensure that happens in our country, and that is not for politicians alone,” he concluded.
