Tinubu’s Campaign List is an Assembly of Discredited Yes Men, Says Opposition APM

*Declares patriotic Nigerians won’t campaign for president’s re-election *Melaye heads to court over Adedeji’s role in campaign Chuks Okocha in Abuja The Allied Peoples’ Movement (APM), has dismissed

The Allied Peoples’ Movement (APM) has labeled President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's campaign council list as a collection of discredited politicians and "yes men" who lack the public support necessary for a successful presidential campaign. In a statement by their National Publicity Secretary, Abubukar Yusuf, the APM criticized the list, which primarily consists of known political sycophants, inconsistent characters, and ideologically inconsistent individuals.

These include failed state governors who faced criticism in Osun State and corrupt politicians seeking official cover for their wrongdoing. The APM argued that the campaign list confirms Tinubu's inability to garner support from patriotic Nigerians due to his poor performance in office. Notable choices on the list, such as Abdul-Aziz Yari, a former Zamfara State Governor, whose administration witnessed escalated banditry, mass killings, and poor governance, highlight Tinubu's questionable judgment in assembling his team.

With over 628,000 Nigerians killed and 2.2 million others abducted during his tenure, the APM contends that supporting Tinubu's re-election would endorse the continuation of these failures. The APM urged Tinubu's campaign team to recognize that their efforts are futile, as the Osun governorship election results suggest Tinubu's inability to win the 2027 presidential election.
