2027: Tinubu’s Presidential Nomination Form Has Already Been Bought – APC Nat’l Chair
The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Prof. Nantewe Yilwatda, has directed party members and support groups to halt plans to raise funds for President Bola Tinubu’s 2027 presidential nomination form, declaring that the process has already been concluded.
Yilwatda made the announcement on Monday at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja after receiving Governor Ahmed Ododo of Kogi State and a delegation of youths from the state who presented a N100 million Zenith Bank cheque for the procurement of the form.
According to him, the initiative by the Kogi youths effectively closes the door on further fundraising efforts for the president’s re-election bid within the party structure.
“With this payment, I want to announce that nobody should bother to bring money to buy forms for President Tinubu again, because the forms has been procured in advance.
I want to thank the Kogi youths for this procurement and act of patriotism,” he said.
The APC chairman described the gesture as a significant shift from what he termed the old political order, where young people were largely passive participants.
He said the development marked a turning point in youth political engagement.
“Today is one of the happiest moments in this party because we are seeing young men, youths from the state taking a decisive action,” he said.
Yilwatda added that the Kogi youths were not focused on personal gains but were demonstrating commitment to continuity in leadership.
He said: “They said the economy has improved and all indices are looking green and positive and that President Tinubu is tackling security in their state along with the State Governor and has given them political appointments.
“They also said the State Governor has done excellently well in terms of infrastructure and has connected roads and empowered the youths.
“To me, this is the first time in the history of Nigeria that youths are coming forward.”
Yilwatda described the youths as a “torchlight and a pillar” within the party, urging others nationwide to emulate what he framed as proactive political participation.
“We are proud, and I’m also proud that these youths are members of our party,” Yilwatda said.
Governor Ahmed Ododo, in his remarks, said young people in Kogi State were responding to what they see as unprecedented inclusion under Tinubu’s leadership.
“In the history of this country, no president has ever given the youth as much space as President Tinubu, of which I am a beneficiary,” he said.
