2027: To rig election is now very difficult – Ayo Fayose

Former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose disclosed on Tuesday night that rigging elections in Nigeria has become an exceedingly challenging endeavor. The former member of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, is now collaborating with President Bola Tinubu's administration within the All Progressives Congress, APC. During an appearance on Channels Television, Fayose made the bold prediction that Tinubu will receive a staggering 12 million votes in the upcoming election.

"Politics is not a tea party," stated Fayose, emphasizing the gravity of the situation. He reiterated, "To rig elections is now difficult. Very difficult." Fayose's recent appointment as Chairman of the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) Board by President Tinubu followed his public endorsement of the presidential contender ahead of his anticipated re-election bid in 2027.
