APC Women Aim for 10 Million Votes for Tinubu in 2027 Elections

The Women Mobilisation Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has set a goal to gather 10 million votes from women for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general elections. This commitment was announced by Mary Alile Idele, the APC National Women Leader, during a town hall meeting in Gusau.

At the meeting, Idele spoke to women leaders and supporters from 14 local government areas in Zamfara State. She encouraged them to vote in large numbers for President Tinubu, citing the positive effects of his administration on women’s lives.

Idele praised the Tinubu government for its focus on women, claiming it has made significant strides in empowering them through various policies. She mentioned the Student Loan Scheme, which helps children from low-income families pursue higher education without tuition fees.

Additionally, she highlighted initiatives that provide cash grants to women, enabling them to start or grow small businesses. These programs aim to help women achieve financial independence and support their families.

Idele also noted the government’s support for women in agriculture, stating that female farmers in Zamfara and other states have received essential resources and training to enhance food production and increase their earnings.

During the meeting, Hajiya Asmau Yari, the wife of the APC Presidential Campaign Council’s Director-General, praised First Lady Senator Oluremi Tinubu’s visit to Zamfara. She called it a historic moment and urged women in the state to show their appreciation by voting for President Tinubu in the upcoming elections.

The Women Mobilisation Committee plans to continue grassroots efforts to ensure a strong turnout for the APC in the 2027 elections.
