Presidential aspirants of the ruling All Progressives Congress APC in the lead up to the 2023 presidential election have agreed to float a forum to mobilize support for President Bola Tinubu as part of measures to tackle the challenges confronting the nation.


They have consequently dropped any presidential ambition ahead of 2027.

Some of the APC presidential aspirants in the last election are former Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Ahmad Sani Yarima, Chief Rotimi Amaechi, Dr Nicolas Felix, Dr Kayode Fayemi, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, Senator Abubakar Atiku Bagudu, Gov. Yahaya Bello, Engr. Dave Umahi, Chief Ogbonnaya Onu, Senators Ahmad Lawan and Godswill Akpabio among others.

Convener and Acting Chairman of the Forum, Senator Yarima as well as APC’s youngest presidential presidential aspirant, Dr Nicholas Felix disclosed this in a statement issued Saturday in Abuja.

… fix dinner for Monday
To this end, the aspirants have fixed an end of year dinner for Monday at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel in Abuja where the forum will be officially inaugurated.

In the aftermath of the APC presidential primary election, there were reports that a few of the aspirants had decided to not support the party’s candidate, Tinubu, who later emerged as president.

Meanwhile, Yarima and Felix in the statement said; “Today, as a people and country, we are faced with myriads of socio-economic problems and we believe that we can only surmount them when we come together, irrespective of our religious, ethnic and even political differences to face these challenges head on.

“It is therefore on this premise that all the Candidates in the 2023 APC Presidential primary have decided to come together under one umbrella to mobilise support for our President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and his Renewed Hope Administration playing advisory role to enable him succeed and transform this great nation.

“Basically, the objective of the forum is to ensure that we come together solidly to support President Tinubu’s administration having surrendered all our individual interests and collapsed same to support the emergence of President Tinubu.

“As critical stakeholders, we have decided that it is not not enough to sit back behind the scenes but to come out and mobilise support for the government’s policies and programmes.

Objectives
“This forum from time to time will play an intermediary role of ensuring that all the policies and programmes of the government are well disseminated down to the people especially the grassroots.

“To fully stay on track, the forum will push to constantly have direct engagements with the President as a way of feedback mechanism and at same time, render possible advice where necessary.

“This forum will leverage on our individual and collective international contacts to ensure that the Nigerians in diaspora are adequately informed and mobilised to giving the President a rousing welcome. We will always go ahead and to make adequate preparations in this regards.

“Also, this forum will be there as rallying point for all former presidential candidates in the February 2023 presidential election.


“Finally, we want to thank all Nigerians and crave for patience with strong convictions that the President relying on his vast experience and antecedents is working very hard to turn the fortunes of the country around,” the statement added.

Okay!

Politicians with Zero Honor

On behalf of the Gburu Gburu Di ke di 1 of Igboland, His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed….😊😊😊

Are they the one MAD or the person that wrote this useless report?

even when the idiotic kindergarten politicians were in government holding executive positions while the Jagaban Borgu was outside government, the City Boy god of Politics humilaited them all at the primaries, and when some of them like Rotimi Amaechi and Ahmed Lawan teamed up with the opposition at the general election, the god of Politics Emilokan Tinubu still stripped all of them nakked at the market square and publicly whipped them mercilessly. Is it now that they are either outside government or holding lower posts that they want to pull any hair from the god of Politics?

Ogun go kill them all.

Party of propaganda

Jagaban Tinubu WILL teach ALL OF YOU politics.

Una never see ANYTHING.

TakeNigeriaBack:
Jagaban Tinubu WILL teach ALL OF YOU politics.

Una never see ANYTHING.

Did you read and understand the contents of the thread before dropping comment?

2023 is barely over

Hope is far from being renewed

Yet some people are already talking 2027

Must be fake news

I read through and it's indeed fake news

Nowhere in the body of the Op was such thing as mobilising support for 2027 mentioned

This is absolutely welcome development if the story is true. This is how party politics should be not nonsense decamping here and there.

Oh this people are bent on destroying ordinary man

I believe this will be a good development.

Tinubu should be very wary of Rotimi Amaechi.

Does it change the present Tinubunomics that has turn the southwest and its inhabitants to Eldorado?

The last youth is refusing to stop at his failed attempt to limelight with the pretense to the throne. Now, he wants to use the oldies head to climb to relevance and limelight with the emilokan of eminado.

Very roguish boy who is so desperate to understand that he is doing too much and over-dropping names that are enough to expose his charade.

Oleee

He's thanking Nigerians...which one of dem?

Nigerians kill your papa and your mama for dia
