APC North West Supports President Tinubu Ahead of 2027 Election
As Nigeria gears up for the 2027 presidential election, the All Progressives Congress (APC) North West zone has thrown its full support behind President Bola Tinubu. The endorsement came after a major stakeholders’ meeting in Kaduna, bringing together all the governors from the region, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the Deputy Senate President, and former governors from the zone.
Other key figures at the gathering included the APC National Chairman, state party chairmen, federal and state legislators, ministers, heads of federal agencies, and senior political appointees. In a statement delivered by Governor Uba Sani, the APC North West Coordinating Governor, the zone reaffirmed its loyalty to the party and promised strong backing for President Tinubu’s vision of prosperity, fairness, and lasting progress for Nigeria.
They praised Tinubu’s leadership, highlighting his bold reforms and steady commitment to moving the country forward, especially in the North West. The statement pointed out that security has improved greatly under his watch, allowing farmers to return to their lands and communities to enjoy peace once again. The zone also noted its growing influence in the federal government, with 12 ministers, important national assembly roles, and key security appointments coming from the region—showing the inclusiveness of Tinubu’s administration.
Infrastructure development was another area of focus, with several major projects either being finished or underway across the North West, signaling a fresh chapter of growth for the region. The meeting concluded by emphasizing that the APC remains strong, united, and increasingly popular nationwide, thanks in large part to Nigerians’ approval of the President and the region’s APC governors.
Politician and former President Olusegun Obasanjo speaks on Nigeria and shares that the possibility of Nigeria surviving another civil war is quite low.
He revealed that the issues that led to the Biafra War have not been resolved and that if another war breaks out, it will be much harder to resolve.
Reflecting on the civil war, he shared “The conditions that led to the Nigerian civil war years ago still remain unresolved.”
“I was involved in the civil war, but whenever people ask me about the Asaba massacre, I always tell them I cannot give details because Murtala Muhammed was responsible for operations in that area.”
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose pleads with the government and President Tinubu that the minimum wage needs to be increased.
He shared that the current minimum wage of ₦70,000 is not enough considering the current state of the country and urged the government to increase it to ₦200,000.
“President Tinubu, have mercy on our people and increase the minimum wage to ₦200,000 now. I don’t think anyone can survive on the current ₦70,000 minimum wage. ₦70,000 is nothing. If we don’t solve the minimum wage problem, we can’t solve crime.”
Human rights activist and lawyer Deji Adeyanju has faced backlash after suggesting that opposition figures, including Peter Obi, could contribute to President Tinubu’s chances of re-election if opposition votes remain divided.
He stated “If Tinubu gets re-elected in 2027, blame Peter Obi and the other contractor-general. With all the insecurity and kidnapping in the country, they are the ones aggressively working for his second term by ensuring opposition votes are divided like they did in 2023.”
His comments sparked criticism from many Nigerians, who argued that Peter Obi is not the only opposition figure and should not be solely blamed for political divisions.
