Why 2027 Is a Done Deal for APC – Deputy Senate President Bara
Given its hold on 29 state governments, Senator Barau Jibril, the deputy president of the Senate, has declared that the All Progressives Congress (APC) will win the 2027 election.
At a political event that supported President Bola Tinubu and Katsina State Governor Dikko Umaru Radda for second terms in 2027, Barau reportedly made the remark while speaking to party faithful.
With 29 governors, he contended, the party had the institutional presence, broad grassroots support, and political apparatus needed to sustain national leadership.
According to Barau, the APC’s hegemony at the state level is a structural advantage that improves governance and election chances rather than merely being a statistic.
The Deputy Senate President claims that President Tinubu’s endorsement was based on performance rather than sentiment, pointing to advancements in infrastructure, healthcare, security, and education as proof that the administration is making success in all important areas.
Speaking from what he called “firsthand experience,” Barau added that he had insight into ongoing reforms and policy direction because of his working relationship with the President.
According to him, the administration is establishing solid groundwork for stability and expansion in the long run.
He acknowledged economic challenges and connected them to global instability, such as international conflicts and global economic disruptions, in response to worries about the rising cost of living.
He stated that despite these obstacles, the federal government is attempting to stabilize the economy and establish systems that would eventually provide results.
He emphasized that stability is necessary for effective governance and urged continued unity within the party as well as collaboration among political players. He claimed that widespread support and political tranquility will provide the President with the conditions necessary to properly carry out his plan.
