Tinubu's Second Term Aid Offered by Peter Obi Amidst Dispute Between Deji Adeyanju and Sam Amadi

In a recent turn of events, human rights lawyer Deji Adeyanju has declared his potential support for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 election, should certain conditions be met. This announcement comes amidst ongoing discussions regarding Adeyanju's political allegiances and his support for Tinubu.

Adeyanju's statement was made in response to the African Democratic Congress (ADC) fielding former Governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, as a potential presidential candidate in the 2027 elections. Adeyanju has expressed his intention to vote for President Tinubu if ADC decides to field Obi, citing his criticism of Obi's political conduct and his supporters' intolerance to criticism.

The lawyer's declaration follows speculations that he may be working silently for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). However, Adeyanju has denied these claims, stating that his support for Tinubu is not secretive but contingent on the opposition's choice of candidate.

The exchange between Adeyanju and former Chairman of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), Sam Amadi, sparked this recent development. Amadi, who is an Obi supporter, referred to Adeyanju as a Tinubu supporter in a response to Adeyanju's post about Peter Obi. Adeyanju responded by making a mockery of Amadi, stating that if Obi secures the presidential ticket of ADC, he would not hesitate to cast his vote for APC.

Amadi, in acknowledging Adeyanju's stance, acknowledged that the lawyer has a personal reason for his support and that Adeyanju is within his rights to support Tinubu. This response from Amadi reflects the ongoing political dynamics in Nigeria, as the 2027 election approaches.

Adeyanju's statement is not just a declaration of potential support but also a call to action, encouraging Tinubu to secure a second term in office. This announcement is a playful comment, using a metaphor of "tears" to express Adeyanju's support for Tinubu.

As the political landscape in Nigeria evolves, the support and declarations of figures like Adeyanju continue to shape the discourse. This announcement by Adeyanju is a reflection of the ongoing discussions and the strategies being employed by political actors in the lead-up to the 2027 election.
