Former presidential spokesman for Labour Party, Kenneth Okonkwo, has insisted that no single candidate from the opposition groups can defeat President Bola Tinubu in 2027 general election.
The actor-turned-politician on Sunday, led this out during an interview on Channels Television, saying that politicians moving to the ruling All Progressive Congress are doing so for personal gains.
Okonkwo added that if the elites can come together like they did in 2014 to confront Goodluck Jonathan in 2015, they will unseat President Tinubu in 2027.
He said: “Moving to 2027, I know that there will be a coalition. Whether it is going to be between Peter Obi and Atiku, I don’t know, but there will be a coalition. Why? Because that will be the only choice the opposition has to make any impact.

“But there would be a coalition. Why? Because that would be the only choice the opposition has to make an impact.
“No one single candidate can be Tinubu alone, and the reason is this. In Nigeria, we have entered into the unfortunacy that you would not only win, you have to secure your victory. So, you need the elite to secure your victory even if the people vote for you.
“If the elites come together like they did in 2014 to confront Goodluck Jonathan in 2015, they will unseat Tinubu in 2027.
“The whole idea of joining another political party, and precisely the ruling party, is simply because of the belief that in 2027 they are going to write the results of the election, nothing else.”
