Lawmaker representing lkwo/Ezza South federal constituency of Ebonyi State and the chairman of the House Committee on Reformatory Institutions, Chinedu Ogah, has bragged that no politician can oust President Bola Tinubu in the next presidential poll in 2027.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain, made this known recently while speaking with journalists in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi State capital, saying Tinubu’s performance and track record speak for him.
Ogah was responding to rumours that an upcoming alliance between former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai and Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), poses a threat to President Tinubu’s reelection in 2027.
According to him, the President knows the problems facing the country and has begun to fix them.

Addressing the innuendo, Ogah said: “President Tinubu is doing perfectly well; he is doing very well. You may hate Tinubu but he is doing well in his administration, tackling the challenges in the country.
“The President has made us legislators sit up and every legislator is busy in his/her constituency attending to the people’s needs because 2023 has shown that if you are not on ground, the people will vote you out.
“The rural people that were regarded as illiterates are now more learned than us and they now know how to vote and who to vote for in an election. If you are not representing well, the people will vote you out.
“So, the President is doing very well and that was why most of us were singing his praises to come into power because he knows the problems of the country and how to solve them, and he is solving them.
“Who is contesting against the President in 2027? Who will run against him? I have even endorsed the President for 2027 and I have not seen anybody that will match him. I have not seen anybody that will match Tinubu in 2027; forget the noise on social media some people are making. Is it El-Rufai who could not win Kaduna, his state, that will match him? He is not an issue if he is running.”
