BREAKING: 20 States Tinubu Will Win in 2027 Election (FULL LIST)

Nigeria’s political landscape is undergoing significant changes as President Bola Ahmed Tinubu prepares for the upcoming 2027 presidential election.

He is facing a range of substantial challenges, including shifting voter sentiments, economic pressures, and an increasing demand for accountability and transparency, which are contributing to a more complex political climate.

As the election approaches, Tinubu is expected to encounter fierce competition from several opponents.

Tinubu will be facing other prominent political figures, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and ex-Governor of Anambra State Peter Obi.

Both Abubakar and Obi previously ran against Tinubu in the 2023 election but were unable to secure victory. Given these dynamics, the 2027 presidential election is shaping up to be one of the most competitive moments in Tinubu’s political career.

In the lead-up to the 2027 contest, they have united within the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and expressed their intentions to challenge Tinubu once again. Atiku Abubakar has made it clear that he intends to run as a northern candidate, while Peter Obi has publicly stated his desire to limit his presidency to a single term, aiming to govern for four years before yielding power back to northern Nigeria.

However, this pledge has drawn criticism from fellow coalition members.

Former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai has openly criticized Obi’s assertion of a one-term presidency, arguing that it raises doubts about the sincerity of his intentions.

El-Rufai has been vocal in advocating for a southern candidate to oppose Tinubu in the election, suggesting that Obi’s statement lacks credibility among the electorate.

Despite these challenges, many analysts believe that President Tinubu may still secure victories in several key states, leveraging his political strategies that could potentially surprise his opponents in the 2027 election. The states where Tinubu is likely to perform well include:

1. Benue
2. Kaduna
3. Imo
4. Nasarawa
5. Plateau
6. Borno
7. Niger
8. FCT
9. Akwa ibom
10. Rivers
11. Zamfara
12. Ogun
13. Osun
14. Ekiti
15. Ondo
16. Oyo
17. Lagos
18. Kogi
19. Edo
20. Ebonyi

These states, each with their unique political dynamics and constituencies, could prove crucial for Tinubu as he navigates the complexities and rivalries of the upcoming election.
