APC fixes its 2023 errors, Sheriff explains
Sheriff explained that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) knew where things went wrong for it in 2023, which made the party lose states like Lagos and Kano, adding that those things have been fixed.
He explained that he had been in contact with Nigerians, adding that he had a private jet but had chosen to travel by road to see things happening across the country and also inform the president about the situation on the ground.
The former senator said:
"I can tell you for free, the only things that will stop President Tinubu from winning the election in 2027 are only two factors: one, if there are no elections in Nigeria; two, if he decides not to run."
