Defections / Progress bolster Tinubu’s prospects for 2027 — Dalori
Bukar Dalori, the acting national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), expressed strong confidence in the prospect of President Bola Tinubu being reelected in 2027.
Dalori highlighted the remarkable influx of new members into the APC, which he believes underscores the party’s growing strength and appeal across the nation. He pointed out that this wave of defections not only reflects the public’s support but also mirrors the positive impact of Tinubu’s administration within just two years in office.
Dalori emphasised that the president’s landmark projects and initiatives have significantly transformed various sectors, showcasing the effectiveness of his governance. These developments, in his view, serve as concrete evidence of Tinubu’s dedication and capability to lead the country toward further progress.
During his opening address at the stakeholders’ summit celebrating the second-year assessment of President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Administration, organised by BAT Movement Nigeria at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, he highlighted the significant progress made under the administration.
The event brought together esteemed dignitaries, including Hannatu Musa Musawa, the Minister of Art, Culture, Tourism and the Creative Economy, Zaphaniah Bitrus Jisalo from the Ministry of Special Duties, and other prominent APC leaders.
Dalori emphasised that these achievements foster a positive outlook among party members and the electorate, paving the way for a successful reelection campaign for Tinubu in the upcoming year.
“We anticipate welcoming at least five more governors into our party. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has demonstrated impactful leadership and a purposeful administration that continues to attract both governors and members of the National Assembly from opposing parties into the APC. I extend my gratitude to the organisers for highlighting the significant accomplishments of Mr. President over the past two years,” he noted.
In his welcome address, Otunba Biodun Ajiboye, the convener and founder of the BAT Movement, acknowledged the political landscape’s challenges, marked by a relentless quest to undermine the president’s vigorous efforts.
He elaborated on the BAT Movement’s mission as an advocacy group dedicated to effectively communicating government policies to the Nigerian populace.
Otunba encouraged Nigerians to remain steadfast and vocal in ensuring that the right leaders guide the country.
He stated, “The President we have today is a transformational leader who maintains focus and drives his team toward achieving set goals. While we may not always receive widespread approval, it is essential to recognise that opposition may attempt to distract from our efforts. However, we are committed to steering Nigeria away from the conventional politics that prioritise personal gain over national development.”
