Talks about the 2027 general elections are distracting, according to Lanre Adebayo, director general of the Progressive Institute, a think-tank of the All Progressives Congress (APC). President Bola Tinubu is focused on providing good governance to Nigerians.
Adebayo claimed that these discussions were not “of immediate interest,” as he stated in a statement on Channels Television’s The Morning Brief on Friday.
“But you see, 2027 is still not of any immediate interest, no matter how good it is. He stated that the government and the president are now focused on bringing back the country’s democracy.

They are focused on governance, making sure the Nigerian people are cared for, and of course, remembering that before these past two years, the economy was in disarray and that people were complaining about hunger and poverty. The President is therefore focused more on that, the DG continued.
Adebayo remarked, “So the question of who will become the Vice President for me is still to be discussed,” in light of the concerns about who the President will choose as his running mate. There is a lot of understanding and harmony between the President and our vice president.
I believe we should not really bother about those issues because it is exactly what I’ll call some political analysts and some of our media colleagues who are inputting some sort of ideas, motives, and that is why I think that’s why. We will be discussing it when we get there, even though they are still two years away, in my opinion.
When you start discussing whether or not to become vice president, when a team of President Bola Tinubu and his vice president, Shettima, are working together to bring democracy to the people of Nigeria, that is detracting from governance. At this point, I don’t believe we should have a good relationship with that discussion.
The DG continued, adding that the party’s progressive pattern was being maintained by the appointment of a new APC chairman.
He claimed that Nentawe Yilwatda, the new APC chairman, had experience and didn’t depend on political formulas.
