2027: Political Group TNN Sets Sights on Unseating APC and Tinubu

In a bold move, Team New Nigeria (TNN), a rising political group, has announced plans to form a new political party to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the upcoming 2027 elections.

Why TNN Is Breaking Away from APC

Speaking at the inauguration of a harmonization committee in Kano, the National President of TNN, Modibbo Yakubun Farakwai, revealed the group’s dissatisfaction with APC’s performance since 2015. Farakwai described Tinubu’s administration as a disappointment, citing its failure to address critical issues like security, poverty, and unemployment.

According to Farakwai:

“We were part of the coalition that brought APC to power in 2015. Looking back, we deeply regret that decision. The APC has failed Nigerians in every critical area—hunger, insecurity, and economic development. The country is worse off today.”

Plans for TNN’s Political Registration

The group has already approached the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to formalize its registration as a political party. Farakwai confirmed that TNN has prepared essential documents, including the party’s name, logo, manifesto, constitution, and flag, which have been submitted to INEC for approval.

“With the support of millions of Nigerians, we are determined to offer a credible alternative to APC’s leadership,” Farakwai stated.

Nationwide Campaigns for Change

To rally support, TNN has launched nationwide campaigns to engage citizens and outline their vision for Nigeria’s future.

“Our nation is in a dire state—broken systems, failing infrastructure, and widespread suffering. Nigerians deserve more than recycled leadership. They need a government built on integrity, transparency, and accountability,” Farakwai emphasized.

The TNN leader also highlighted their robust membership base of over 26 million Nigerians as evidence of the group’s readiness to lead.

TNN’s Vision for Nigeria

Farakwai stressed that TNN’s mission is to rebuild Nigeria by addressing key challenges:

1. Eradicating Poverty: Introducing policies to lift millions out of poverty.
2. Fighting Corruption: Implementing strict penalties, including the death penalty, for public officials who mismanage funds.
3. Revitalizing Governance: Promoting a culture of transparency and people-centered leadership.

“By 2027, we aim to establish a Nigeria free of poverty, injustice, and corruption. This is not just a promise; it is a commitment to every Nigerian seeking change,” Farakwai affirmed.

A Call for Fairness from INEC

Farakwai urged INEC to maintain neutrality and ensure the 2027 elections are free, fair, and credible.

“INEC must uphold its constitutional mandate and resist any form of political interference. The destiny of our nation depends on it,” he concluded.

Conclusion

With growing dissatisfaction over APC’s governance, TNN positions itself as a beacon of hope for millions of Nigerians longing for a better future. As the group progresses toward formal registration, it remains committed to offering transformative leadership that prioritizes the people.
