Minister of State for Defence, Dr. Bello Matawalle, says President Bola Tinubu will record a landslide victory in the 2027 presidential election.
Matawalle therefore urged Nigerians and political leaders to unite in support of the administration’s ongoing reforms.
Matawalle, who made this declaration while addressing guests at his Abuja residence on Saturday, said the President’s style of governance and policy choices are steadily steering Nigeria toward economic recovery, stronger institutions, and greater national unity.
The Minister warned against early political scheming and internal power contests targeted at weakening the current government, describing such moves as driven by narrow interests and harmful to the health of Nigeria’s democracy.
Matawalle said, “President Tinubu has taken bold steps to stabilise the economy and strengthen national institutions.
“Those plotting to unseat him are motivated by personal interests rather than the public good. If allowed to complete his reform programme, I am confident the President will win convincingly in 2027.”
He added that the benefits of the administration’s policies are already becoming evident nationwide, with notable progress in the North, particularly in governance reforms, security efforts, and institutional development.
Matawalle urged political stakeholders to prioritise dialogue and collaboration over division, stressing that the collective good of the nation must outweigh individual political aspirations.
He further encouraged citizens to back government initiatives designed to drive long-term economic expansion, enhance security, and reinforce national cohesion.
“Rather than engaging in rancour and short-term political calculations, we should focus on solutions that deliver jobs, security, and stronger institutions for Nigerians,” Matawalle said.
