2027: Giving Nigerians Buhari, Tinubu for 16 years is foolishness — Sam Amadi

Former chairman of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, Sam Amadi, has slammed the All Progressives Congress (APC) for its plan to retain power in Nigeria for 16 years, following the eight-year reign of former President Muhammadu Buhari. Amadi expressed his disapproval in a post on X, stating that the idea of the APC ruling Nigeria for such an extended period would amount to "large-scale foolishness" or indicate a "terrible election political economy."

He made these remarks in response to the AP's efforts to secure another eight-year term under President Bola Tinubu. Amadi's criticism comes as political parties and candidates ramp up preparations for the 2027 general election, with the APC actively campaigning for the continuation of its administration beyond 2027.
