It is becoming increasingly clear that the Tinubu-led administration is wary of a level playing field. “However, our message to the APC and the relevant institutions is simple: the Nigerian people will not accept anything less than a free, fair, and transparent contest. “No amount of political maneuvering can stifle the desire for change. We are prepared to protect the sanctity of the ballot box and usher in a new era of competent leadership that truly serves the people.” Don't Miss Ibadan Summit: You’re wasting your time, can’t defeat Tinubu – APC slams opposition parties You may like Ibadan Summit: You’re wasting your time, can’t defeat Tinubu – APC slams opposition parties Osun Guber Poll: APC pledges issue-based campaign 2027: Ex-Foreign Affairs Minister Tuggar declares bid for Bauchi governorship 2027: Fubara backs Tinubu for second term 2027: Opposition alliance can shake Tinubu – Primate Ayodele 2027: NBC’s new directive to broadcast organisations raises dust
