Political Analysis: The Pulse of the Nation on Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki’s Presidential Ambition, by Hon. Muhammed Jamiu Olokogboro
Executive Summary
After conducting a six-month research study, I am pleased to share my findings on the sentiment of the Nigerian masses regarding Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki’s potential presidential candidacy in 2027. The results indicate that an overwhelming 65% of the population wants Dr. Saraki to be the next President of Nigeria. However, the unity of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has become a concern, potentially impacting Dr. Saraki’s chances.
Introduction
As a concerned citizen and political analyst, I embarked on a research study to gauge the sentiment of Nigerians regarding Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki’s potential presidential ambition in 2027. The study aimed to understand the pulse of the nation and identify potential challenges that may impact his candidacy.
Methodology
The research study employed a mixed-methods approach, combining both qualitative and quantitative data collection methods. A total of 10,000 respondents were surveyed across the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria. Additionally, focus group discussions and in-depth interviews were conducted with key stakeholders, including political leaders, civil society organizations, and community leaders.
Findings
The study revealed that 65% of the respondents want Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki to be the next President of Nigeria. The reasons cited for this sentiment include:
– Dr. Saraki’s leadership experience and track record
– His commitment to democratic principles and good governance
– His ability to build bridges across party lines, ethnicities, and regions
However, the study also identified a significant concern – the unity of the PDP. Respondents expressed worries that the party’s internal divisions and lack of cohesion may impact Dr. Saraki’s chances of securing the presidential ticket.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the findings of this research study demonstrate that Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki has the support of the majority of Nigerians to be the next President of Nigeria. However, the unity of the PDP is a critical factor that needs to be addressed to ensure his success. I urge the PDP leadership to work towards unity and give Dr. Saraki the necessary support to secure the presidential ticket.
Sincerely,
Hon. Muhammed Jamiu Olokogboro
