2027: Fresh prophecy gives verdict on Tinubu’s running mate

The political challenges surrounding the former governor of Borno State, Kashim Shettima, has become increasingly precarious as discussions among party leaders suggest a potential shift in the dynamics of Nigeria’s 2027 presidential election, thepapers.ng reports

Speculation is rife regarding the possibility that Shettima may be replaced as the running mate to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as he gears up for his re-election bid.

This scenario has raised concerns among many stakeholders in the northern region, particularly from the northeast, which is the stronghold of Shettima and the area that produced the Vice President.

Thepapers.ng reports that despite these worries, it appears that strategic calculations are at play, particularly with the recent political maneuvers by former Kano State governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, who is reportedly preparing to defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Although the presidential election remains two years away, the chatter surrounding Shettima’s potential ousting from the ticket has intensified.

Adding to this growing narrative is a prophetic pronouncement made by one of Nigeria’s most respected spiritual figures, Prophet Bisi Olujobi, who is the founder and General Overseer of Wisdom Church International, based in Ketu, Lagos.

Prophet Olujobi has claimed that it is divinely revealed that President Tinubu will drop Kashim Shettima from the vice-presidential slot for the upcoming election.

Hear what he said:

“The Vice President will be dropped. His people will influence him to rise against the President and things will not go as planned for him. He needs to be more prayerful. It’s not the President that will insist on dopping him, but his own people will work against him and pressure Tinubu to drop him at all cost.”

Meanwhile, former political adviser to President Bola Tinubu, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, has faulted the President’s silence over persistent rumours that he plans to drop Vice President Kashim Shettima ahead of the 2027 general election.
