Former Cross River State Governor and presidential candidate of the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), Donald Duke, has criticized Tinubu’s administration’s performance in governance. He recently had his say during an appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today, where he assessed Tinubu’s political standing ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
Describing BAT as a formidable politician, Duke admitted that he does not believe President Tinubu is politically stronger than he was in 2023.
He added that the president has clearly lost some of the public sympathy he enjoyed during the last poll.
His words, “I don’t think so, I think his governance has exposed the weakness of the contraption called. I don’t think he has the sympathies he had in 2023.
Things have gone harder for people, a lot of people are disillusioned by his style of governance, hope has turned into despair.
Yes, you talk about structures and all that but I think on the election day they will be fighting for their own survival.
Give it to him, he is a formidable politician, my issue with him is governance not politics.
He is weak on governance, from what we have seen over the last three years he is very weak on governance.
The reality is that things are bound to happen on that (election) day, how to mitigate those things should be the major concern of the opposition. I don’t like people who cry wolf after it has happened and all that.
We have done this several times over, we should anticipate it, and united we stand if we do it, if we don’t, then we will only have ourselves to blame because it has repeated itself.
Absolutely. First of all, once we have commonality in objective, the next question is who is best suited for this? You need some voice of reason amongst the lot of them.”
