North Rules Out Tinubu’s Second Term Amid Rising Insecurity

A northern lawmaker, Hon. Idris Kalgo, openly stated that the North will not support President Tinubu’s bid for a second term in 2027. Kalgo cited persistent violence, repeated attacks in Borno and other states, and what he called a lack of presidential attention when tragedy struck. He contrasted Tinubu’s decision to travel to the UK after the latest attack with criticism Tinubu once leveled at former President Jonathan for a similar absence. This debate goes beyond party loyalty. Many in the North feel ignored and question whether their security and lives matter to the federal government. Behind the scenes, political alignments and strategies are already taking shape. The big question now is whether this declaration will translate into concrete action or fade as another political moment.
