Tinubu will get 25-30% of South-East votes in 2027 — Okorocha

Former Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha has predicted that President Bola Tinubu will secure between 25 and 30 percent of the South-East votes in the 2027 presidential election. Okorocha urged northerners to reciprocate Tinubu's past support for the late President Muhammadu Buhari by backing his re-election bid. He made these remarks after being decorated as the National Grand Patron of Grassroots Advocacy for Tinubu 2027 in Abuja.

Okorocha noted that the South-East previously gave Tinubu only about five percent of its votes in the 2023 presidential election but expressed confidence that this would improve in 2027 with his involvement and that of other political leaders.
