Response to NEF’s Comment on 2027 Election

In a related development, Rev. John Joseph Hayab, former Chairman of the Kaduna State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), criticized the Northern Elders Forum (NEF) for its stance on the 2027 presidential election. Responding to NEF’s alleged threat to boycott Tinubu in the upcoming election, Hayab deemed it premature for Northern elders to raise concerns about an election three years away.

In a statement issued, Hayab expressed disappointment in NEF’s timing and reasoning, particularly regarding its stance on Tinubu’s candidacy. He juxtaposed Tinubu’s performance against the economic backdrop, suggesting that recent improvements in the Naira-Dollar exchange rate reflect positively on Tinubu’s governance compared to Buhari’s tenure.

Hayab’s remarks indicate a broader discourse within Northern political circles regarding the future direction of Nigerian politics, with considerations of leadership performance and regional representation coming to the fore.
