The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has declared that it would defeat the All Progressives Congres (APC) “silly” in 2027 even if it names highest ranking billionaire, Elon Musk, as its campaign Director General.

NDC director of new media and strategic Communications, Theo Abu Agada, stated this while faulting the 2027 campaign council constituted by the APC.

He stressed that having moneybags in the team is not a guarantee for electoral victory.

Taking to his X on Sunday, Agada insisted that Nigerians would decide the fate of candidates in the 2027 poll.

According to him, the APC-led administration has led Nigerians into poverty since assuming office.

He wrote: “I am not the least bit moved or worried by the composition of the APC Presidential Campaign Council.

“If the party likes, let it name Elon Musk as their DG and all the moneybags in the country as their members, we will still beat them silly in 2027.

“The ordinary people whose take-home cannot even take them home are the ones who will make a bold statement in 2027.

“The 140 million Nigerians that the APC-led administration has driven into poverty are the ones who will decide the 2027 election.”
