Zainab Galadima, daughter of New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) chieftain Buba Galadima, believes President Bola Tinubu could secure as little as 30 percent of votes from the northern region in the 2027 presidential election.

Speaking on the Mic On podcast hosted by Channels Television journalist Seun Okinbaloye, Zainab described the upcoming election as likely Tinubu’s most difficult political challenge yet.


“Honestly, I don’t have good reviews (from northerners about Tinubu). It’s really bad. Tinubu may get, maybe, 30 percent or less,” she said.




“It’s going to be worse than the 2023 elections. The chances of Tinubu winning the 2027 election is going to be the toughest battle that he will ever see,” she added.

“It’s going to be the toughest because this coalition, as much as I don’t understand what they are doing, but anybody that sees them knows that we need to sit up.”

Zainab previously served as a technical assistant on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the office of the vice-president during the first term of former President Muhammadu Buhari.

Meanwhile, her father, Buba Galadima, also weighed in on the emerging opposition coalition, describing it as a positive development for Nigeria’s democracy.


He urged Nigerians who care about the country’s future to support the alliance, stating that it deserves public backing given the current state of affairs.

The coalition, which recently adopted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as its platform and unveiled a new leadership structure, aims to mount a strong challenge against Tinubu in the next presidential race.

Prominent figures in the coalition include former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar; former Minister of Transportation Rotimi Amaechi; 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi; and former Kaduna State governor Nasir el-Rufai.

Tinubu won't see even 10% , except through rigging. But rig and die.

Tinubu is loosing it day after day.

He's losing a lot of support and he's yet to realize it.
A lot needs to be done ahead of 2027.
I guess Tinubu is only just relying on the INEC to manipulate results in his favor but I see INEC failing woefully this time around

Even the 30% na yoruba wey dey live for North,no man I his right sense will vote for a man that ruined his business, visit him with hunger and makes living a hell for him, no man

Tinubu should just throw in the towel and go home. It's over!

How can tinubi supporters all b waiting for inec to help them. It's so funny and sad

Yes I agree that most of what you support has eventually been passed 👏

BUT

How has these things and people you support been of an advantage or help to the betterment of the lives of you, your family, your relatives and your friends. I believe that's the real question you should be asking yourself today

It's like someone supporting the the company that makes sniper incecticide because he wants the product to be available when he wants to use it to commit suicide

You say Rigging?lolz You don't know the plan the coalition has for him. You saw the results of Abuja in last election how obi destroyed him Lols,same thing will happen in all state this time around. Men dey wait. We already know is plan to victory (Rigging). I assure u Tilumbu is a one term president.

Who will get the remaining 70%?
Obi or Atiku?
LOL.
People never realize that neither Obi nor Atiku can sweep votes ahead of Tinubu.
Bring a new face into the system and it will be tough, with Obi and Atiku, we all know what will happen.
