2027: APC members alone can re-elect Tinubu — Uzodinma

The Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, has said that if only members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, vote in 2027, President Bola Tinubu would secure a second term.

Uzodinma spoke on Saturday against the backdrop of the large turnout of voters at the ongoing APC presidential primary in Orlu East Local Government Area of the state.

According to the governor: “It’s very obvious that Tinubu has done enough to deserve going back for a second term. Look at how the grassroots have been stimulated, starting from the membership registration, which was done electronically, to the validation of members.

“You can see 35,000 human beings in just one ward in Orlu East Local Government.

“If only our party members (APC) vote for President Tinubu, he has already won the election because the membership registration, as conducted by the APC, took care of grassroots inclusiveness, and today it is manifest in our democratic situation in Nigeria.

“Today, I want to congratulate Nigerians for sustaining democracy, and I also want to congratulate Tinubu for doing politics the way it should be done.”

The governor also urged the opposition to work hard and wait for their turn to produce Nigeria’s president.

“It’s no longer democracy if there is no opposition. I encourage the opposition parties to work hard and do what the ruling party has done. When it becomes their turn, they will elect their own president. But today, I can see that Nigerians are excited,” he added.
