Tinubu Has No Plans To Extend Tenure Beyond 2031, Presidency Replies El-Rufai

If re-elected in 2027, President Bola Tinubu will not be in office after May 28, 2031, the Presidency has stated, confirming his commitment to democratic principles.

The speculation that the President wants to stay in power after his election as governor by former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, is “baseless and absurd,” according to the Special Adviser on Information and Strategy to President Tinubu, Bayo Onanuga.

El-Rufai compared Cameroon’s Paul Biya to the Tinubu administration, who has been in power since 1982, during a solidarity visit from former vice president Atiku Abubakar over the weekend, making the claim that the government is veering toward authoritarianism.

He also criticized the current administration for limiting federal principles, citing a threat to Nigeria’s democratic foundation.

“Sorry, sir, it’s even a disgrace,” I thought. It means that all the years of making claims like we are fighting for democracy and NADECO, and other things were just a fake again, for people to behave the way they are behaving. Because this government (Tinubu’s administration) is attempting to centralize everything rather than shifting authority to lower levels.

If we don’t work together to put an end to this Tinubu administration by 2027, Tinubu will try to be our Paul Biya, according to the article’s summary. This is how Paul Biya got its start, El-Rufai said.

However, Onanuga claimed that Tinubu’s claims are “unfounded” in his response to El-Rufai.

According to him, El-Rufai claims that the ADC’s plan to defeat Tinubu in 2027 is proving to be a mission that will never be realized.

According to his statement, “Former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai appears to need some assistance, especially given his recent unfounded assertions and rumors about President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.” El-Rufai’s associates’ attempts to thwart President Tinubu’s likely re-election in 2027 have become increasingly apparent. This mission is destined to fail because the plot is becoming impossible to follow.

El-Rufai was undoubtedly surprised by the level of support the President continues to enjoy in the North after hearing about President Tinubu’s lavish reception last Friday in Kaduna. His claim that the area has abandoned the President is stark in contrast to this.

He then resorted to spreading more absurd and untrue stories, including the claim that President Tinubu plans to become a “life president” after 2027, which is nonsense and absurd.

“President Tinubu is a democrat who, when re-elected in 2027, does not intend to remain in office after May 28, 2031.”
