The Progressive Governors Forum has endorsed President Bola Tinubu as their sole candidate for the 2027 presidential election.
The endorsement was announced at the ongoing All Progressives Congress (APC) National Summit, taking place at the banquet hall of the State House, Abuja.
The endorsement was moved by the forum chairman, Imo State Governor Hope Uzodimma, and seconded by Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani, signaling 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 mobilizing resources and ensuring victory for Tinubu in their respective states.
They 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.
The latest endorsement for Tinubu, comes amidst coalition moves by the opposition figures, former PDP Presidential aspirant, Atiku Abubakar, former governor of Kaduna state, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai amongst others pitching tent with the African democratic Congress (ADC).
