Kwankwaso Predicts APC's Downfall in 2027 Elections Over Strategic Missteps
Rabiu Kwankwaso, the vice-presidential candidate for the Nigeria Democratic Congress, has voiced concerns over the ruling APC's electoral strategy, suggesting that their coalition with state governors reflects a lack of confidence. He argues that the APC will face serious repercussions on election day due to these miscalculations.

Rabiu Kwankwaso, a prominent figure in the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) and its vice-presidential candidate for the upcoming 2027 elections, has made a bold prediction regarding the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). During a recent statement, he asserted that on election day, the APC will come to realize the substantial errors they have made in their strategic planning for the elections.
Kwankwaso highlighted that the APC's recent alliance with governors across various states is a clear indication of their insecurity and lack of confidence in their individual capabilities to secure re-election without external support. This coalition, he argues, is a desperate attempt to bolster their chances in the face of growing opposition.
“The APC is scrambling for alliances because they know their popularity has waned. When the day comes, they will see the consequences of their misjudgments,” Kwankwaso stated, emphasizing the need for a re-evaluation of their political strategies.
His remarks come amid increasing political tensions as various parties ramp up their preparations for the 2027 general elections. Kwankwaso's confidence in the NDC's platform suggests a shift in the political landscape, where traditional strongholds may be challenged by new alliances and strategies from opposition parties.
As the political climate evolves, the implications of Kwankwaso's predictions will be closely monitored by both supporters and critics alike, with many looking to gauge how the APC's current tactics will play out in the forthcoming electoral battle.
