 Amaechi Declares Bid for ADC Presidential Ticket, Vows to Challenge Tinubu in 2027


Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has announced his intention to contest the African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential primary ahead of the 2027 general elections. Speaking to journalists in Kano State on Wednesday, Amaechi expressed confidence in securing the ADC ticket and facing President Bola Tinubu in the national polls. “I will contest the ADC presidential primary, and by God’s grace, I hope to win so that I can face Tinubu in 2027. I am not stepping down for anyone. Let the people decide who they want to lead,” he declared.


Amaechi, who made the remarks following a meeting with traders in Kano, emphasized the need for a transparent and competitive primary process within the ADC. He argued that fostering internal democracy would strengthen the party’s position. “Whether the government wants to conduct credible elections or not, one thing is certain—time is up,” Amaechi said. “Nigerians are tired because no one is happy under Tinubu, not even in Rivers or across the South. People are suffering everywhere.”


Positioning himself as a unifying candidate, Amaechi highlighted his southern roots and claimed broad national appeal. “If you look at all those aspiring, including Tinubu, who is better prepared than I am? My candidacy offers unity because I come from the South, and we are not in conflict with any region,” he stated.


Amaechi’s visit to Kano included a condolence call to the family of the late Alhaji Aminu Alhassan Dantata, underscoring his engagement with local communities as he builds momentum for his presidential bid.
