LAGOS APC VOWS UNWAVERING SUPPORT, DECLARES SOUTH-WEST WILL NOT ABANDON PRESIDENT TINUBU

The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has issued a powerful declaration of loyalty, assuring President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the unwavering support of the entire South-West geopolitical zone for his anticipated re-election bid in 2027. The party structure in Lagos, the President’s traditional political base, emphatically stated that the region would not abandon its illustrious son when the next electoral cycle commences.

The statement, attributed to a key official of the Lagos APC, serves as an early but potent rallying cry to solidify the regional support base for the President, signaling the commencement of pre-election political permutations within the ruling party.

“The South-West region, being the cradle of President Tinubu’s political journey and the foundation of his national mandate, will stand firm behind him in 2027,” the official asserted. “The notion of the South-West abandoning its own is politically unthinkable and will not materialize. We are united in our commitment to the Renewed Hope agenda and will work tirelessly to deliver our votes.”

This early public affirmation is seen by political analysts as a strategic move to preempt any potential splinter groups or disaffection within the region, positioning Lagos as the vanguard of the President’s home support. It also aims to project a united front as the APC begins to map out its strategy for the next presidential contest.

The party leaders emphasized that the declaration is rooted in the belief that President Tinubu’s administration has laid a robust foundation for economic recovery and national development through its ongoing reforms. The Lagos APC is confident that by 2027, the socio-economic benefits of the Renewed Hope agenda will be evident enough to secure a resounding victory for the President’s second term.

With the statement, the Lagos APC leadership has effectively fired the first major salvo in the countdown to the 2027 general elections, placing regional loyalty and political consolidation at the forefront of the ruling party’s strategy.
