APC Governors Endorse President Tinubu For 2027 Presidential Election.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has taken a significant step towards the 2027 general elections with the endorsement of President Bola Tinubu as the party’s consensus presidential candidate. The endorsement was made by the 22 APC governors under the aegis of the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF) at the APC National Summit held in Abuja.
A Show of Unity
The summit, themed “Renewed Hope Agenda: The Journey So Far”, saw the attendance of party bigwigs in solidarity with the President’s agenda. Imo State Governor and PGF Chairman, Hope Uzodinma, announced the decision to endorse Tinubu, citing the economic, social, and political progress made under the President’s stewardship. The motion was seconded by Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sanni, and received unanimous approval from attendees.
Key Highlights
– Economic Progress: The APC governors believe that Nigeria is moving in the right direction economically, socially, and politically under President Tinubu’s leadership.
– Party Unity: The endorsement is a show of party unity, with the PGF and APC senators and House Representatives members backing Tinubu’s candidacy.
– Responsibility: The PGF Chairman tasked the governors with delivering their individual states for the President and ensuring that government policies occupy the political space in their domains.
The endorsement is seen as a significant boost for Tinubu’s re-election bid, with the APC positioning him as the party’s sole presidential candidate for the 2027 elections. The development comes as the country is still grappling with the impact of economic reforms introduced by the Tinubu administration.
