  "summary": "The Presidential Campaign Organisation of Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has mocked the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council, describing it as a \"coalition of failed politicians\" that cannot prevent President Bola Tinubu from suffering defeat in the 2027 general election. Makinde's Allied Peoples Movement Council stated that the council, dubbed a \"Nebuchadnezzar Coalition,\" is destined for political humiliation due to worsening insecurity, economic hardship, and declining public confidence in the Tinubu administration. The statement criticized the council for surrounding themselves with \"compensated loyalists and sycophants\" who do not command the loyalty or followership of the people, and questioned how they would explain the deepening socio-economic challenges and declining human capital in Nigeria.",
