The newly elected Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Southwest Zone, Dr Isaac Kekemeke, has pledged that the region will deliver the highest number of votes for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general elections.

Kekemeke made the pledge on Wednesday in his acceptance speech at the party’s zonal congress held at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena in Lagos.

The APC zonal chairman also assured that his leadership would outperform previous administrations, pledging to mobilise support for both Tinubu and the party ahead of the elections.

Speaking on behalf of APC governors in the zone, Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu described the peaceful conduct of the congress as a reflection of the region’s political maturity and tradition of orderliness.

He also acknowledged the presence of officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Sanwo-Olu commended delegates for their discipline, saying it underscored unity within the Southwest.

“We are here to congratulate the newly elected Southwest APC leadership. With this congress, we have shown that the Southwest is united and a formidable region. We have also demonstrated that we have learned a lot from our leader and President of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu,” he said.

He added that the congress complied with the provisions of the Electoral Act 2026, reaffirming the Southwest’s status as a strong political bloc.

Earlier, Chairman of the Zonal Congress Committee, Jide Jimoh, said the Southwest remained a bastion of progressive politics and sound policy direction.

He stated that the congress followed due process and fully complied with the Electoral Act before calling for the affirmation of contestants through voice votes.

Those elected at the congress include Isaac Kekemeke (Chairman), Alfred Aluko (Secretary), Ismail Majaro (Legal Adviser), Lateef Ibirogba (Organising Secretary), Ayobami Afolabi (Publicity Secretary), Yetunde Adesanya (Woman Leader), Daramola Adesuyi (Youth Leader), and Dayo Ishola (Representative for Persons Living with Disabilities).
