Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and South-East leader, Tinubu Support Organization, George Agbakahi, has come hard on former Jigawa State Governor, Sule Lamido over his claim that the North will not vote for President Bola Tinubu in 2027.<\/p>\nLamido was quoted as saying that \u201cno right-thinking northerner\u201d would vote for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027.<\/p>\n
Speaking at a PDP caucus meeting in Dutse, the former governor further claimed that the APC-led government was dragging Nigeria \u201cdeeper into poverty and hopelessness.\u201d<\/p>\n
But reacting, Agbakahi, who is also a member, APC 2023 Presidential Campaign Council, media and publicity directorate, said such sweeping, reckless remarks, coming from an elder statesman were preposterous and deeply disappointing.<\/p>\n
In a statement he made available to DAILY POST on Tuesday, the APC chieftain said Lamido\u2019s claims \u201cnot only do they fly in the face of facts, but they also insult the intelligence and patriotism of millions of Nigerians, particularly Northerners, who have benefitted directly from President Tinubu\u2019s bold, inclusive and performance-driven leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n
He described the former governor\u2019s claim as \u201ca familiar pattern of political frustration.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to him, \u201cLamido\u2019s tirade follows a familiar pattern by several selfish, self centered and frustrated opposition politicians, unable to connect with the grassroots or explain their party\u2019s past failings, resorting to empty rhetoric and divisive propaganda.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut Nigerians are wiser now. The North, in particular, is not deceived. They know when a government is working, regardless of the challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n
Contrary to Lamido\u2019s baseless allegations, Agbakahi said the Tinubu administration\u2019s Renewed Hope Agenda had delivered tangible transformation in infrastructure, security, agriculture, economic recovery, and education to mention but few, especially in Northern Nigeria.<\/p>\n
He chronicled some of the achievements of the Tinubu administration, which also factored the North, to include the Kaduna Power Plant, abandoned for decades, key federal highways like the Abuja\u2013Kaduna\u2013Kano Road, Sokoto\u2013Badagry Superhighway, and Kano\u2013Maiduguri Expressway, all undergoing reconstruction, connecting economic hubs and reducing travel time.<\/p>\n
He said further that the administration was investing in Kano \u2013 Kaduna and Kano \u2013 Maradi light rail projects, projected to create over 250,000 jobs in construction, transport, and maintenance sectors, among others.<\/p>\n
On the state of the economy, he stated that Nigeria\u2019s economy was in a perilous state in May 2023 when President Tinubu assumed office which is partly attributed to the bad governance and economic Mismanagement of the16 years of failed PDP administrations.<\/p>\n
\u201cInflation under President Tinubu has reduced considerably to below 22% and fiscal deficits are widening. Revenue has increased exponentially.<\/p>\n
\u201cThrough a combination of fuel subsidy removal, FX rate unification, and enhanced revenue strategies, the administration has reduced headline inflation to 21.30% in July 2025, boosted federal revenue collections, with the FIRS posting N21.6 trillion in 2024, nearly double the N11.5 trillion recorded in 2023 and expanded foreign reserves from $34.9 billion to $40.9 billion, supported by strong non-oil exports and trade surpluses.<\/p>\n
He also observed that the current administration had disbursed N9.58 trillion via FAAC to states in 2024, up from N3.2 trillion in 2023\u2014allowing 33 states to clear N1.85 trillion in debt and carry out massive and incredible infrastructural development.<\/p>\n
\u201cStates are conveniently paying the new minimum wage of 75,000 and some are even paying more, the latest being the Imo state governor, Senator Hope Uzodimma who recently increased the state minimum wage to 104,000 Naira monthly.<\/p>\n
\u201cNigeria Customs service for the first time in history generated 6.1 trillion in 2024 as opposed to 2.60 trillion in 2022.<\/p>\n
\u201cNPA generated 894.86 billion in 2024 as opposed to 361 billion Naira in 2022 whereas NIMASA generated 67 billion Naira in 2024 compared to 42.3 billion in 2023.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe mining sector, a hitherto forgotten area generated 38 billion Naira in 2024 as opposed to mere 6 billion Naira in 2023 with 800 million dollars in foreign direct investment since President Tinubu came on board.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is not \u2018hopelessness\u2019 Sule Lamido,\u201d Agbakahi declared, describing it as disciplined recovery.<\/p>\n
He further stated that on the issue of security, Lamido also ignored the dramatic gains in national security.<\/p>\n
According to him, Lamido forgot the fact that during the PDP administrations in 2013, Boko haram held on to 15 local government areas in the North East, specifically in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s on record that the APC administration of President Buhari was the one that extricated the Boko haram terrorists from these 15 LGAs in the North East.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is also significant to note that the terrorist kingpin that masterminded various terrorist sleeper cells in the North in the past decades such as Abu Baraa and Mahmoud Al-Nigeri were captured by the Nigerian security forces under the APC administration of President Tinubu,\u201d he said, while noting that under President Tinubu\u2019s watch \u201cmonthly terror-related deaths fell by over 90%, from 2,600+ in early 2023 to fewer than 200 by late 2024.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said within the same period, over 13,000 terrorists were neutralized, and 124,000 combatants surrendered during aggressive counterinsurgency operations.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe North is safer, more stable, and gradually regaining confidence, Sule Lamido,\u201d Agbakahi argued.<\/p>\n
He went on to state that under agricultural Transformation, the government had recognized that the North is Nigeria\u2019s agricultural heartland.<\/p>\n
He said in that direction, Tinubu had launched a $158.15 million Agriculture Value Chain Programme across nine northern states, with support from multilateral partners.<\/p>\n
\u201cRevitalized livestock development via a dedicated Ministry of Livestock, aiming to address farmer\u2013herder conflict.<\/p>\n
\u201cFacilitated the cultivation of 10,000 hectares of farmland for displaced people and supported millions of farmers through subsidized inputs and loans,\u201d including financing of 5 million farmers, over 70% from northern Nigeria.<\/p>\n
While further puncturing Lamido\u2019s stance, the APC chieftain identified the establishment of the National Commission for Almajiri and Out-of-School Children with 101 almajiri centers and 120 learning hubs launched nationwide, as part of the government\u2019s education agenda.<\/p>\n
He did not leave out the Student Loan Scheme (NELFUND), observing that over 275,000 northern students out of 400,000 beneficiaries nationally have received loans, amounting to N45 billion (55%) out of N77 billion disbursed so far (Business Day, August 2025).<\/p>\n
Agbakahi added that nationally, out-of-school children dropped from 10.5 million to under 9 million, while university enrollment rose from 8% to nearly 13% in two years.<\/p>\n
He said considering these indices, \u201cSule Lamido may speak for his own frustration, but not for the enlightened people of Northern Nigeria.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe records show that this administration is not marginalizing the North, or any region, but rather mobilizing it.<\/p>\n
\u201cFarmers in Katsina are exporting produce across Nigeria. Students in Sokoto are receiving loans and returning to school.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Kaduna power plant is progressing on track. Light rail is coming to Kano. Security is returning to Borno. That is progress. That is leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPresident Tinubu may not have achieved everything expected by Nigerians; no one can within two years, but he has governed with vision, discipline, and fairness.<\/p>\n
\u201cSule Lamido\u2019s divisive comments cannot rewrite facts or erase achievements. The 2027 elections will be based on performance, not propaganda.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd by every measurable indicator, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is building a stronger, safer, smarter, and more united Nigeria.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is both disingenuous and uncritical for Sule Lamido to generalize that the entire North will not vote for President Tinubu in 2027. No ethnic or regional voting bloc in Nigeria is monolithic.<\/p>\n
\u201cElectoral behavior is influenced by a complex mix of local dynamics, party structures, candidate appeal, and socio-political realities unique to each state.<\/p>\n
\u201cEven within Lamido\u2019s so-called \u2018North,\u2019 voting patterns have always varied. In the 1979 general elections during the Second Republic, for instance, Plateau State supported the NPP, Sokoto State voted for the NPN, while Kano State embraced the PRP.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese divergences reflect the independent political consciousness across northern states.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe current democratic dispensation further underscores this diversity.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday, Sokoto and Zamfara are controlled by the PDP, Kano is governed by the NNPP, while Kaduna, Kebbi, Benue, and Niger States are led by the APC.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese distinctions clearly show that Northern Nigeria cannot be politically herded into a single narrative or controlled by the sentiments of any one politician.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was only President Buhari of blessed memory in Nigerian history who had that organic-like following in Northern Nigeria getting 12 million votes each time he ran for the presidency.<\/p>\n
He said Lamido is not President Buhari and \u201cyou don\u2019t have the cult-like followership even in Jigawa State, how much more in Northern Nigeria.<\/p>\n
\u201cLamido\u2019s sweeping assertion is not only historically inaccurate but also a gross underestimation of the North\u2019s political sophistication and evolving democratic maturity.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet us continue to place facts over fiction and nation above party,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n
