2027: Plateau APC endorses Tinubu for second term
The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Plateau State on Friday officially declared its support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s second-term bid ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The endorsement was made public at a stakeholders’ meeting in Jos, where Nentawe Yilwatda, APC National Chairman, a native of the state, urged party members to unite behind Tinubu’s re-election campaign.
Yilwatda praised Tinubu’s leadership, citing achievements in economic growth, infrastructure, education, healthcare, and youth empowerment as evidence of a progressive administration worthy of continuity.
“We have every reason to give President Bola Ahmed Tinubu a second term,” he said, highlighting economic growth and oil production gains under Tinubu’s leadership.
He emphasised that Tinubu had given a voice to marginalised groups, referencing the appointment of the first managing director of the North Central Development Commission from Plateau State.
Yilwatda described APC as the “bride of the moment,” revealing that more senators, governors, and National Assembly members are quietly returning to the party, including some from PDP and ADC.
