2027: Give Tinubu 90% votes if you want Igbo presidency – Umahi tells Southeast .
Minister of Works, David Umahi, has made a bold appeal to the Southeast: give President Bola Tinubu 90% of your votes in 2027 or forget about producing a Nigerian president in the near future.Nigerian history books
Umahi, a staunch Tinubu ally and former governor of Ebonyi State, declared that only political loyalty not emotions or “empty noise” will pave the way for an Igbo presidency someday.
“We must not be deceived again,” Umahi warned. “If we want to lead this country, we must first show that we can support others. It’s time to stop darkening counsel without knowledge.”
Taking a jab at supporters of Peter Obi, Umahi said the region must abandon “sentiments” and embrace “political realism.”

“President Tinubu has shown unwavering love and fairness to the Southeast. The least we can do is rally behind him,” he said.
“Let us not be swayed by hate, misinformation, or emotional politics. All zones are benefitting from Tinubu’s presidency. We must support him to finish his eight years. One day, it will be our turn but not in 2027.”
The Works Minister also hailed the current crop of Southeast governors, commending them for aligning with the federal government’s vision. He called on the region to re-elect them, saying they are “doing great work for our people.”
