The Allied People’s Movement (APM) has said that supporting President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027 would only lead to more hardship, insecurity, unemployment and poverty for Nigerians.
The party made the statement on Tuesday through its National Publicity Secretary, Abubakar Yusuf, while criticising the performance of the Tinubu administration.
He urged Nigerians to back what the party described as a credible alternative ahead of the next general election.
According to Yusuf, Nigerians are already facing severe economic hardship and insecurity under the current administration, and another term for President Tinubu would worsen the situation.
“Supporting President Tinubu’s re-election would amount to supporting more suffering, more insecurity, more unemployment, more poverty, more collapsed infrastructure and more hopelessness in our country,” he said.
The APM spokesman alleged that many of those campaigning for the President’s second term were doing so for personal reasons rather than in the country’s interest.
“Those calling for President Tinubu’s re-election despite his record are mostly discredited politicians, including those seeking official cover for corruption charges and other atrocities they committed against Nigerians,” Yusuf alleged.
He also claimed that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) was becoming concerned about the growing popularity of the APM ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
“The APC and President Tinubu’s supporters know that he cannot win in a free and fair election. That is why they are jittery over the rising popularity of the APM as a rallying opposition platform and our presidential candidate, Governor Seyi Makinde,” he said.
Yusuf further accused the Federal Government of failing to address the country’s security challenges.
According to him, terrorism, kidnapping and violent attacks had continued to increase.
The APM also criticised the administration’s borrowing policy, claiming that Nigeria’s foreign debt had increased significantly and warning that the country’s future was being burdened by rising external loans.
