Why Tinubu's 2027 Reelection Is NOT Guaranteed – Abba Yusuf Defects to APC + Kwankwaso Warning!

‪@pauluwadima‬

Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano State has officially resigned from the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) and defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) amid political realignments ahead of 2027. This move comes after weeks of speculation and internal NNPP tensions.
But does joining APC guarantee victory for President Bola Tinubu in 2027? History says NO! In the 2023 presidential election, Tinubu surprisingly lost in several states with sitting APC governors, including:
Kaduna (APC Gov Nasir El-Rufai) – Won by PDP's Atiku Abubakar
Katsina (APC Gov) – Won by PDP (Atiku)
Kebbi (APC Gov) – Won by PDP (Atiku)
Gombe (APC Gov) – Won by PDP (Atiku)
Yobe (APC Gov) – Won by PDP (Atiku)
Nasarawa (APC Gov Abdullahi Sule) – Won by Labour Party's Peter Obi
Lagos (APC Gov Babajide Sanwo-Olu) – Won by Labour Party (Peter Obi)
Kano (then APC Gov Ganduje) – Won by NNPP's Rabiu Kwankwaso
Adding fuel to the fire, NNPP leader and 2023 presidential candidate Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso warned defectors like Governor Yusuf: "Betrayers never end well" – watch the attached video clip!
Is this defection a smart move or political betrayal? Will it boost Tinubu's chances or backfire like in 2023? Drop your thoughts in the comments!
