Amaechi: We Are The Only Party With 13 States, Let Tinubu Tell Us How Many States He Comes With

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) Vice Presidential Candidate, Rotimi Amaechi, has challenged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to demonstrate the political strength of his party ahead of the 2027 general election, insisting that the ADC has a significant level of support across the country.

Amaechi made the statement in a video shared on YouTube by Channels Television on Sunday, November 15, 2026, where he spoke about the political standing of the ADC and its readiness to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the forthcoming presidential election.

During his remarks, the former Rivers State governor expressed confidence in the political strength of the ADC, claiming that the party has a presence in 13 states. He subsequently challenged President Tinubu to disclose the number of states the APC could confidently claim as part of its political support base.

According to Amaechi, the ADC believes it has the political structure and nationwide presence required to compete effectively against the ruling party.

He appeared particularly confident in his assessment of the opposition party’s position, using the claimed number of states to question the electoral strength of the president’s political platform.

Speaking during the discussion, Amaechi said, “We are the only party with 13 states, let President Tinubu tell us how many states he comes with.”

The statement represents a direct political challenge to President Tinubu and the APC as opposition parties continue to position themselves ahead of the 2027 general election.

Amaechi’s comments also suggest that the ADC is confident about its chances of building a formidable political coalition capable of giving the ruling party a serious contest.

The former governor’s remarks come amid increasing political activities and exchanges between the ruling APC and opposition figures.
