Hunger, insecurity, hardship will decide 2027 elections — PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has declared that the 2027 general elections will be a referendum on hunger, hardship, and insecurity under the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Speaking at a press conference in Abuja on Tuesday, PDP spokesperson, Debo Ologunagba, said Nigerians have become “wiser” and will not return the APC to power in 2027 elections.

“Nigerians are wiser now; what will be on the ballot in 2027 is hunger, insecurity, and uncertainty things no money can buy,” he said.

Ologunagba accused the APC of weaponising poverty and worsening the nation’s economic crisis. 

He noted that the hardship faced by citizens would be a major deciding factor in the 2027 elections.

“When PDP was in government, farmers used mobile phones to access fertiliser; under APC, Nigerians are forced to buy hunger; in 2027, the people will speak with one voice.”

He also alleged that the APC manipulated security agencies to intimidate PDP members during last weekend’s by-elections in Kaduna and Taraba states.

“On the night of that election, all prominent members of the PDP were arrested. Flip over to Taraba state. Prominent members, including elected members of our party, were arrested,” he added.

“We don’t call that an election. And we have heard about the arrogance of the APC. What they have done with those elections attests to what they want to do in 2027.

“But I have bad news for APC. What happened in those by-elections, which they call an election, will not occur in 2027. Why? The reason is that Nigerian people are wiser.

“They are hurting. What will be on the ballot in 2027 will be the hunger, the uncertainty, and the insecurity that no money can purchase.”
