LFormer Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal, warns northern governors to defect to ADC to be re-elected, Babachir Lawal speak about Nigeria’s 2027 general elections
Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal, has warned that governors and other elected officials from northern Nigeria may not secure re-election in 2027 unless they defect to the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Speaking on Trust TV’s Sunday Politics, Lawal declared that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has marginalised the North and failed to deliver on its promises, leaving its officials with no viable political future.
He maintained that the only path to political survival for many of them is to join the opposition ADC.
“Which northern elected official will go to campaign on the platform of the APC this coming election? Nobody. Unless ab initio, you have no plan to win election. I can’t see anywhere,” he said.
When asked if this included governors seeking a second term, he responded, “Unless they join the ADC, they will not win…simply because they belong to a destructive party. A party that woefully failed to perform.”
Lawal stated that discussions are already ongoing between the ADC and some northern governors who are considering a switch ahead of the general election.
He also aligned himself with former Kano State governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, in criticising President Bola Tinubu’s administration for its alleged neglect of the region in infrastructure development.
“Every Nigerian that has anything to do with the north will know that no infrastructure work is going on at any level,” he said.
“No projects are going on — at least they are not visible to the eye. Maybe in their imagination, maybe in the spirit — but we don’t see it.
“We don’t see any construction work. We don’t see any infrastructure going on. No federal government project whatsoever.”
