2027: I’ll Deduct 1m Votes From Tinubu


The former Coordinator of the Tinubu/Shettima 2023 Presidential Campaign Council in Zamfara State, Senator Kabiru Marafa, has vowed to strip President Bola Tinubu of at least one million votes in the 2027 general elections.

The former All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain made this declaration in an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Monday.

“Now, whether Mr President would win or not is a question of seeing, but I want to assure you of something today. I am going to deduct one million votes out of Mr President’s votes that he got in 2023.

“Mark my words. 2027 is going to determine who is a featherweight,” Marafa said.

New Telegraph recalls that Senator Marafa had earlier confirmed his resignation from the APC on Sunday, August 31.

Marafa’s confirmation came after his political structure held a meeting last Wednesday and Thursday, where leaders unanimously resolved to dump the APC over what they described as injustice, neglect, and worsening insecurity in Zamfara State.
