Senator Orji Kalu has expressed confidence that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will secure victory in the 2027 presidential election, arguing that the President’s performance in office has positioned him strongly for another term.
The former Abia State governor also said the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) would work to ensure the party retains power.
Speaking on the political outlook ahead of the next general election, Senator Orji Kalu said, “I would say congratulations to whoever wins, but President Tinubu can never lose the election because he has done so well and our party will make sure of that.” The remarks have generated fresh debate within Nigeria’s political landscape as parties continue to strategise ahead of the 2027 polls.

According to Senator Orji Kalu, the confidence within the APC stems from what party leaders describe as the Tinubu administration’s record in governance and ongoing reforms. His comments reflect the growing optimism among many members of the ruling party that President Tinubu remains a formidable candidate despite the emergence of opposition alliances seeking to challenge the APC in the next election.
The senator’s remarks also underscore the increasingly active political conversations taking place across the country, even as the official campaign period has yet to begin. Political stakeholders from both the ruling party and opposition continue to assess alliances, campaign strategies and policy priorities ahead of the electoral season.

The 2027 presidential election is expected to be one of Nigeria’s most closely watched political contests, with major parties already positioning themselves to attract voters.

While Senator Orji Kalu has projected confidence in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s chances, political analysts emphasise that elections in Nigeria are ultimately determined by the electorate through the constitutional process supervised by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). They also stress that campaign claims from all political parties should be viewed as part of the broader democratic contest.
