2027: INEC is neutral. My opponents crying wolf are afraid of their own shadows – President Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu has given the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) a clean bill of health, accusing the opposition parties of crying wolf.

Speaking while receiving the leadership of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria (CBCN), led by its President, Most Rev. Matthew Ndagoso, at the State House, Abuja, on Tuesday, President Tinubu said

“The opportunities are equal. INEC is neutral. They have never intimidated anyone. If political opponents are crying wolf, maybe they are afraid of their own shadows and uncertainty in the companies they keep, not me.”

Ahead of the 2027 elections, the opposition parties have repeatedly accused INEC of undermining their activities to favour the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
