APC mocks Aregbesola for boasting that ADC’ll takeover Villa, Lagos

The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has mocked the latest boast by Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola that the African Democratic Congress (ADC) will “take over Aso Rock and Lagos Government House” in 2027.

In a statement released by the spokesman on Saturday said Aregbesola who was once a proud landlord in the progressive family, now reduced to a wandering tenant in a mushroom opposition party.

According to him, “From Lagos Commissioner to Osun Governor and then Minister, Aregbe ate, dined, and thrived on the APC table. Today, in a desperate bid for relevance, he is busy setting fire to the same house that made him. That, dear Nigerians, is political suicide of the highest order”.
The statement titled: Aregbesola’s Empty Boast That ADC Will “Take Over” Aso Rock and Lagos Govt House in 2027″, the spokesman added that when the former Minister condemns the APC, he is not damaging the Party but shredding his own résumé.

“Every attack on APC is an attack on the very foundation of his career. It is akin to a man writing his autobiography with an eraser. Nigerians know better than to take such a self-destructive messenger seriously” he said.

APC spokesman stated that If the ADC thinks Aregbesola is the one to lead them to electoral glory, then they are preparing for a funeral, not victory. “Putting Aregbe at the front of a charge against APC is a recipe for failure.
“Let us be clear: Lagos and Nigeria are not conquered by soundbites. Our people vote for performance, not fairy tales. The APC’s record is visible on the roads, in our schools, in our hospitals, and in our reforms.

“ADC, on the other hand, remains a political mirage – loud on boasts, empty on substance. The woeful, embarrassing performance of the ADC in the recent by-elections should give them no cause for hope. They need to first learn to be humble before they inevitably bite the dust in 2027”.

He boasted that come 2027, Lagosians and Nigerians will once again choose consistency over confusion, credibility over contradictions, and competence over comedy. “The APC will be rewarded for delivery, while Aregbe and his ADC will be reminded that betrayal is not a political strategy.
While concluded that Ogbeni Aregbesola’s rant is less a threat to APC and more a public obituary of his own political relevance, adding that Aregbe turning his back on the progressive family that made him, he has written himself out of history and into the footnotes of infamy.

He said, “If ADC insists on betting its future on a man dismantling his own legacy, then the only “takeover” awaiting them in 2027 will be takeover by ridicule. APC is here to stay. Movements don’t collapse because one man chooses to self-destruct”.

Meanwhile, it was reported that Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, who is the National Secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has vowed that his party will unseat President Bola Tinubu and also take over Lagos state come 2027.
The former governor of Osun State made the pledge on Saturday, at an event where the leader of the Conscience Forum of the Labour Party (LP), Hon. Moshood Salvador, led members of the group to the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

According to him, “With our resolve, it won’t be difficult at all to take over the seat of power. It’s a simple strategy of one getting ten and each of the ten will equally get ten. Its operation ten over ten. Once we are able to get this done, that’s the end of it.

“We will surely meet at the Aso Rock Villa and produce the next president of the country. Once again, I am happy to be here and we must not relax our efforts to change Nigeria”, the ex-Governor said.
