…Dares President to Travel to Kaduna, Kano, Plateau, other States by Road


The Makinde-Daura Presidential Campaign Organisation (MDPCO) declares that its presidential candidate on the platform of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), Engr. Seyi Makinde, will defeat President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the 12 battleground states identified by the President as well as in other states across the federation, in the January 2027 Presidential election

The MDPCO asserts that Engr Makinde would decisively defeat Tinubu and his All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council in Rivers State and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, insisting that no amount of political manoeuvring, intimidation or abuse of incumbency by the President’s henchmen can reverse the growing tide of opposition to his re-election.

The arrogance and political overreach of President Tinubu’s inner circle had deepened public resentment and further weakened his electoral prospects.


President Tinubu’s decision to personally visit and campaign only in the 12 states of Oyo, Kaduna, Rivers, Plateau, Borno, Enugu, Bauchi, Sokoto, Delta, Kano, Adamawa and Lagos states further confirm his apprehension over the mileage and foothold already achieved by Engr. Makinde with his RESET NIGERIA Agenda message in the above-mentioned and other states of the federation.

Mr. President should know that his visit to these states, if he eventually does, will not in any way change the direction or the determination of the people to vote him out, given his unpardonable failures in office which has brought unprecedented hardship across the country.
President Tinubu has no meaningful achievement he can boast of in these and other states of the federation where Nigerians now refer to his government as “T Pain” following the suffering they have been subjected to by the policies of the Tinubu administration in last three and half years.
We challenge President Tinubu not to have a change of mind but visit the states to face the people. He should travel around the country by road and witness the decrepit state of federal highways, the squalor in which Nigerians live and the level of infrastructural decay across the country, while his government squanders trillions of Naira on white elephant projects and wasteful programmes.
If President Tinubu believes he is popular as he claims, he should not stop at the rally ground or at the airport when he gets to any of the states. He should go beyond waving to the gathering of APC rented crowd and be bold enough to directly engage the people in the communities and towns to seek their votes as the APM Candidate, Engr. Makinde has been doing since he started his campaign.
The APM Candidate has been engaging Nigerians with his clear-cut RESET NIGERIA message, focused on rebuilding systems and institutions that produce excellent outcomes rather than relying on vain sloganeering like President Tinubu’s vacuous Renewed Hope Agenda
Nigerians are gravitating towards the core campaign pillars and proposals in Makinde’s RESET NIGERIA Agenda which include the establishment of an all-inclusive, four-year transitional government of national unity with four priority pillars of education, economy, security and socio-political policies.
Unlike President Tinubu’s visionless, thoughtless and rudderless rule characterized by crass arbitrariness, Engr. Makinde RESET NIGERIA Agenda offers data-driven strategies that revolve around tackling poverty through massive production; a security plan that prioritizes intelligence gathering, social reorientation, and decisive kinetic and non-kinetic actions; an education plan that focuses on expanding access to quality functional education and institutional reform that emphasizes on inclusive governance, and sincere public leadership.
Our Campaign is proud to acknowledge that feedback from the field indicates that Engr. Seyi Makinde’s RESET NIGERIA Agenda is resonating with Nigerians, especially the youths, who not only see light at the end of the tunnel, but a bright sunny day under a Makinde-Daura Presidency.
President Tinubu is for the umpteenth time urged not to waste the nation’s resources on his “Nebuchadnezzar” Campaign Council of failed politicians who, like the President himself, cannot attract votes from Nigerians.
