Archbishop Emeritus, Catholic Diocese of Abuja, Cardinal John Onaiyekan, has asserted that the votes of the masses may not count even in a free and fair election in 2027.

Naija News reports that Cardinal Onaiyekan, during an interview on Arise Television’s ‘Prime Time’ programme on Friday, expressed concerns that the administration of President Bola Tinubu is bent on winning elections by all means.

According to him, Tinubu’s government has many means at its disposal, which are being deployed in such a way that Nigerians’ votes may not count.

He also raised doubts about the independence of the electoral umpire, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), despite Tinubu’s claim that the electoral body was neutral.

He said, “We’re worried about the fact that President Tinubu administration is bent on winning the 2027 elections by all means.
