APC Is Gaint With Clay Feet, Can't Win ADC in 2027 - Abaribe by BlessedGift(op): 8:34am On Dec 16, 2025
The former Deputy Governor of Abia State, has said the APC should not be deceived by those defecting to the party, describing the ruling party as a “giant with feet of clay.” He added that the APC could face the same fate as the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which, despite controlling 28 states out of 36 at one point, was eventually voted out of power.


Abaribe, who referred to himself as a member of a coalition, said opposition members are working together to use the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to push the APC out of power, but they are waiting for the ADC to release its election guidelines.

The federal lawmaker said he sees the opposition becoming the majority in the next election and urged opposition parties to work together to liberate Nigerians from what he described as APC’s poor governance.

He said: “The next election will be APC against the people of Nigeria. Nigerians are hurting—and hurting badly. Those defecting to APC are also hurting and are waiting for us to take action. It is good that defections are happening now. Most Tinubu supporters cannot even go home and declare their support; they risk being stoned. The economy has collapsed, and security is nothing to write home about. APC is absorbing all the problems it will face. At one time, the PDP controlled 28 out of 36 states. Where is PDP today? APC will go the same way. I see the opposition forming the majority in the next election.

“I am a member of the coalition, and we are using the ADC to get APC out of power, although the ADC has not yet released its election guidelines. I belong to a political party but remain a member of the opposition. The opposition must unite, bury their differences, work harmoniously, and liberate Nigerians from the current state of the country.

 “APC may appear as a giant, but it has feet of clay. Tinubu will lose the 2027 election. He never truly won the 2023 election, and everyone knows it. We accepted him because of the court judgment legalising his election. But this time, everyone will be ready. The results won’t be announced at 3 a.m.; the public will be aware of the outcome.”

Abaribe also accused Tinubu of gradually turning the country into a one-party state—a move the president had vehemently opposed years ago as a major opposition figure, standing against the then-ruling PDP. He criticized Tinubu for failing to lead by example, living in opulence while Nigerians continue to suffer.

He further accused the president of running Nigeria like a monarchy in what he termed a “Kabiesi government,” where anything Tinubu says is deemed right, and anyone who challenges him is charged with treason.

“President Tinubu is now engaging in what he once opposed. He resisted the rampaging effect of the PDP, but now he is mobilising Nigeria into a one-party state. APC is keeping everyone in little silos. A leader should lead by example. If citizens are suffering, the President should identify with them.

“He must cut the cost of governance and stop the flamboyance for citizens to believe in him. You asked the public to cut their coat according to their cloth, yet you went to sew agbada. You cannot ask me to suffer while you live in opulence. It is simply a matter of integrity and trust in governance. State capture occurs when other arms of government become subservient to the executive,” Abaribe added.

This is the most useless senator in Nigeria. He has been in the Senate even before some of us on nairaland were born. Nobody can point to his achievement. He talks rubbish. He behaves irrationally and yet every four years the vote in in.
Please should tell me his contribution to the development of his state and Nigeria. His ten million naira he used as guarantee for Kanu is gone.

grin cheesy

Says irrelevant senator who is neither here nor there

Abaribe is not aligning with the FG nor associating with the politicians from South East, how then would he be able to push his constituency development in the Senate?

All he does is to nag, wail and complain with no tangible achievements as a senator for almost 2 decades. How he has been winning his reelection in the land of the righteous should be added to new wonders in the world
Re: APC Is Gaint With Clay Feet, Can't Win ADC in 2027 - Abaribe by Seeplusplus: 9:06am On Dec 16, 2025
This is what we keep hearing every four years. There's little or nothing Nigerians can do when it comes to choosing their leaders.

A lot of politicians won't be known today if the process that produces them was credible.

Prepare your minds to have APC for another 6yrs.

If anything changes, know that it is by divine intervention, not your useless votes.

His people don't want achievements, they want kerosene, gutters, water fountain, 2 Hilux for 1.5B and their most favourite, gala and malt.

Well so you would rather vote in someone that did absolutely nothing for this country, light wasn't stable, fuel scarcity every December, no refineries private or public, no good road , idris sang Nigeria jaga jaga under thier leadership. I rebuke your evil dream. Nigeria has its challenges and will surmount it but not by handing the country back in to the hands of people that did nothing with it

Your opinion does not matter,your opinion is as useless as Tinubu's economic policies that ridiculed Nigerians economy and made Nigeria the poverty capital of the world,the most insecured place to live as a Christian,one of the highest child mortality rates,highest number of internally displaced people and the list goes on.
If we have 20 senators like Abaribe,I am sure that this impunity going on in our nation would not have persisted,we wouldn't be so much indebted that even our children's children may still be paying the reckless loans collected out of greed and avarice.

It's good to dream. He is free to move to coalition of failures who had failed Nigerians in the time past.

What did you achieve for your constituents?

You have been in the senate for decades

That should be the topic for discussion.

Development is at the sub-national level, what has been your impact on your people.

Abaribe's tactics is to use sentiments and divisive strategies like claiming marginalization every election circle.

My eastern brothers and sisters are plagued with very bad unaccountable and irresponsible leaders.

Opposition unity is always announced, never delivered. Personal ambition usually kills it before campaign season even starts.

Word from someone who claims he is a part of coalition but he is not a member is ADC
APC is fast claiming most of their strongholds,his stand is not firm,his seat in the senate is shaking…he needs to fight,one of his toughest rival is already in APC so to decamp is not feasible.
Re: APC Is Gaint With Clay Feet, Can't Win ADC in 2027 - Abaribe by tonesky(m): 9:24am On Dec 16, 2025
