Wike Dares El-Rufai to Bet on Tinubu’s 2027 Re-Election

  • FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has challenged former Kaduna governor Nasir El-Rufai to a bet after dismissing his prediction that President Bola Tinubu would come third in the 2027 polls.
  • Wike insisted Tinubu will win re-election, describing El-Rufai’s analysis as flawed.

Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike, has challenged former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, to a bet over the outcome of the 2027 presidential election.

Speaking during a media chat on Monday, Wike dismissed El-Rufai’s recent prediction that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu would finish third in the 2027 polls, insisting the analysis was flawed.

Wike expressed confidence that Tinubu would secure a second term in office, adding that he was ready to stake a bet with El-Rufai to prove his point.
“Elrufai is my friend, but he failed in this mathematics. He goofed; since he knows Tinubu will come third, he should also provide who will be first and second. I will place a bet if El-Rufai agrees, if Tinubu doesn’t win the 2027 election securely.”

@ter015078: “If you work genuinely and get the money I’m sorry but if you do Yahoo Yahoo may it burn 20 times.”

@redchampagnebox: “Stealing money from vulnerable people in the name of Yahoo to buy expired cars never ends well. He is probably feeling the same level of pain his victims felt the day they found out that they were scammed. Karma no get patience again.”

@SYVOZEEK149: “Was he really crying or my eyes de pain me? Ritual was successful Watch out for his return.”
