APC National Chairman Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda says none of the opposition candidates can match President Tinubu in the 2027 election.
He made the claim on Thursday while receiving members of the Forum of APC House of Representatives Aspirants at the party's national secretariat in Abuja.
The four candidates he named are Atiku Abubakar of the ADC, Peter Obi of the NDC, Donald Duke of the PRP and Seyi Makinde of the APM.
Yilwatda said the APC has facts and records that can stand up to any rival's.
"None match our own candidate.
None. I mean, none," he said.
He said Tinubu's record on building institutions is stronger than any other candidate's.
On roads, he challenged the opposition to name a 500 kilometre road built with the N300 billion budget released when Obasanjo was president and Atiku was his vice president.
He said he could point to many roads built in the last three years instead.
