The National Chairman of the Peoples Redemption Party, Dr Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, has declared that he would work to ensure President Bola Tinubu is not re-elected in the 2027 general election.
Baba-Ahmed, a former Special Adviser on Political Matters to Tinubu, stated this on Sunday during an interview with Channels TV, while reacting to claims that he was working for the President following his previous role in Tinubu’s administration.
He emphasised that he worked in Tinubu’s administration and not for him(Tinubu).
He explained, “The people also said we are working for Tinubu, can you believe this. People say things like if you are not in this particular party, you must be working for Tinubu because you are only to split the vote. I worked in Tinubu’s administration, I am not working for him.
“I will work to get Tinubu out of place (Presidential seat) because I think he is bad news for Nigerian’s future.”
Asked whether he could work with Tinubu again, Baba-Ahmed ruled out the possibility.
“No, if I could work for him, I would not have walked out of the office that they appointed me in. I am not saying that only PRP can get Tinubu out of power but we have a major contribution to make and we are looking for every legitimate opportunity to make that work,” he added.
