Bianca: ‘Tinubu Assumes SouthEast Is In The Basket Ahead Of 2027’ – PDP Chieftain
The spokesperson of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Youth Group, Dare Glintstone Akinniyi, has described the appointment of Bianca Ojukwu as a minister by President Bola Tinubu as purely political.
Naija News reports that Akinniyi, in an interview with Legit, asserted that Bianca’s appointment has nothing to do with track records or capacity.
The PDP chieftain claimed that the ruling All Progressive Party (APC) is trying to bring the southeast closer because Tinubu is rattled by the results of the 2023 election from the southeast.
Akinniyi said it would be almost impossible for Tinubu and APC to get more in the 2027 election, going by the hardship in the country, adding that the president is using Bianca’s ministerial appointment to get the attention of the Southeast.
He said, “Bianca Ojukwu’s nomination is purely political and nothing about track records or capacity – APC is trying to bring the South East closer. Some people have argued about the competence of President Tinubu in delivering the dividends of democracy, but it is becoming clearer day by day that he won’t be better than Muhammadu Buhari. If it’s about capacity, we have Ngozi Okonjo Iweala who is Igbo.
“When you look at the last Presidential election, it’s all in the favour of Obi’s LP. Peter Obi had 88% in Abia, 95% in Anambra, 80% in Ebonyi, 94% in Enugu and 77% in Imo State.
“These numbers will rattle any incumbent, and President Tinubu is trying to capture more votes ahead of 2027, which is almost impossible going by the hardship in the land.
“As it stands, APC has lost their goodwill in the North, the SouthWest is divided over Tinubu’s incompetence, and he is only trying to get the attention of the South East. Everyone knows Ojukwu is revered and respected in Igboland, and by appointing his Wife, he assumes the South East is in the basket ahead of 2027.”
