Former Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Political Matters, Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, has said the president would become the “worst president” if he returns to power in 2027.
Baba-Ahmed made the remark on Tuesday during an interview on Channels Television’s Political Paradigm, where he expressed dissatisfaction with the current administration’s performance.
According to him, he has not observed any improvement since resigning from his advisory role, but rather a worsening of national conditions.
“Our nation has been a lot more insecure now than I left. What I see at home and on the street when people speak, the level of desperation, poverty is most pronounced, especially in the Northern part of the country,” he said.
He also criticised what he described as the president’s political strategy ahead of the next election cycle.
“I see a president who is amassing all the politicians around him with the hope that those politicians are going to deliver him in the second term.
“That is poor thinking. It’s not strategic and it’s not Tinubu that we used to hear about,” he added.
Baba-Ahmed concluded by stating, “I’m sorry to say that I think President Tinubu will make the worst president if he returns to power in 2027.”
His comments come amid ongoing political realignments and early positioning ahead of the 2027 general elections.
