Amaechi: APC Win in 2027 Would Retire ADC Leaders From Politics

Rotimi Amaechi, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) vice-presidential candidate, has said he would leave partisan politics if the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) wins the 2027 presidential election. He spoke on Wednesday at the ADC National Women League Conference in Abuja. Amaechi told party leaders in the states to mobilize strongly to defeat President Bola Tinubu at the polls. He warned that if the opposition failed, the political careers of its current leaders would be over. He advised delegates who are not from the Federal Capital Territory to go back to their states and campaign. Amaechi said he would also travel on Wednesday, and that he would not wear a suit but would dress like a young man instead. He explained that if the APC wins the 2027 election, the crop of leaders at the event would be retired from politics. He said they must go home if they do not want that to happen, adding that two thousand votes per ward would be enough to win the election.
