In a recent video from 7:10 shared on Facebook on Sunday, March 22, 2026, Primate Elijah Ayodele spoke about the political landscape ahead of the 2027 general elections, with particular attention to Lagos State and the dynamics surrounding major political parties.
In the video, Ayodele stated, “If the APC is not careful, they will not win in Lagos State.” He explained that electoral success in a key state like Lagos depends on strategy, internal cohesion, and how well a party manages its relationships with the electorate.
According to Ayodele, All Progressives Congress must remain vigilant and proactive in addressing internal issues and public sentiment to maintain its dominance in Lagos State. He noted that political competition in the state is strong, and opposition forces are likely to intensify their campaigns ahead of the elections.
Ayodele further emphasized that voter perception, grassroots mobilization, and effective communication with citizens are critical factors that can influence election outcomes. He suggested that any sign of complacency could create openings for rival parties to gain ground.
The cleric added that Lagos State remains a politically significant region in Nigeria, often serving as a major battleground during elections. He stressed that parties must continuously engage with the people, address their concerns, and strengthen their structures to remain competitive.
Ayodele concluded by advising political actors to prioritize unity, strategic planning, and consistent outreach, noting that electoral success in 2027 will depend largely on how well parties position themselves and respond to the expectations of the electorate. Read_More…
