Stop The Madness! APC Chieftain Slams Early 2027 Campaigners: ‘Let Tinubu Breathe

A prominent member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State, Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, has strongly criticized politicians already fixated on the 2027 general elections.

Speaking to journalists on Sunday in Osogbo, Oyintiloye emphasized that it is far too early to begin discussions about the next presidential race, given that President Bola Tinubu has only completed two years of his tenure.

Rather than distracting the President with premature political scheming, he urged political actors to allow Tinubu to focus on resolving the country’s urgent challenges.

He expressed disappointment that while the President is working tirelessly to stabilize the economy, combat insecurity, and improve national infrastructure, some politicians are already positioning themselves for future offices.

“Some individuals are already lobbying for the Vice President’s seat while the President is engaged in critical tasks to move the country forward. Instead of offering support, they’re stirring unnecessary distractions,” Oyintiloye lamented.

He warned that such political noise from opportunists could derail the progress made so far, describing the situation as “increasingly nauseating.”

“With more than a year and a half before the 2027 elections, it’s absurd that these power-hungry actors won’t allow the President to concentrate on his mandate. This must stop,” he stated.

Oyintiloye called on politicians to allow Tinubu to focus on delivering effective governance.

“There are pressing national priorities before the President right now,” he noted. “Shifting the conversation to future elections—whether 2027 or 2031—is unnecessary and distracting. What the President needs is our full support, not relentless political posturing.”
