The vice-presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Rotimi Amaechi, has said only “mad men” would vote for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.
Amaechi made the statement on Thursday at the Edo State ADC stakeholders’ town hall meeting in Benin City, the state capital.
He urged Edo residents not to support Tinubu’s re-election bid, insisting that voting for the president in 2027 would be the wrong decision.
Amaechi said, “If you’re going about ‘vote Tinubu, vote Tinubu,’ only a thief will vote for Tinubu. In fact, I read in one of these social media that if it is in 2027 that we will know how many mad men we have in Nigeria because it’s only a mad man that can vote for Tinubu.
“If Edo people vote for Tinubu, that means Edo people are mad. If you’re not, then Tinubu should not win here.”
Amaechi continue to criticize the economic conditions facing Nigerians and argued that the effects of government policies were being felt across households.

Amaechi made the remark during an appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today, after the presenter asked him directly whether Tinubu’s policies were responsible for his mother’s death.
“Is it Tinubu’s policy that killed your mother?” the presenter asked.
Amaechi responded: “Of course, before Tinubu, my mother was healthy.”
He later made clear that the remark was a joke rather than a literal claim about the cause of his mother’s death.
