At the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Summit, the Progressive Governors Forum formally endorsed President Bola Tinubu as their sole candidate for the 2027 presidential election.
The endorsement was moved by the forum chairman, Imo State Governor Hope Uzodimma, and seconded by Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani, signalling strong unity among the party’s governors in support of Tinubu’s bid for a second term.
Uzodimma, speaking on behalf of the forum, emphasised their commitment to mobilising resources and ensuring victory for Tinubu in their respective states.
The governors expressed confidence in Tinubu’s leadership and reforms, promising to deliver their states in the upcoming elections.
This endorsement follows similar moves by other APC regional leaders, including the North Central governors, who recently passed a vote of confidence in Tinubu’s administration, praising his developmental strides and inclusive governance approach.
The Progressive Governors Forum’s backing further consolidates Tinubu’s position as the APC’s flagbearer for 2027.
