Dr Tonye Timi, Secretary, Media and Publicity Committee for All Progressives Congress (APC) Campaign Council in Delta, says President Bola Tinubu’s reforms and Gov. Sheriff Oborevwori’s outstanding performance are bases for APC’s continuity in 2027.
Timi said this in a statement made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) Abuja on Thursday.
He said that the ongoing local government-by-local government campaign rallies of the party have continued to demonstrate the growing strength, unity and electoral readiness of APC ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Timi, in the statement, quoted the governor as expressing confidence in APC’s electoral strength while speaking at rallies held in Akwukwu-Igbo, Oshimili North Local Government Area and Asaba, headquarters of Oshimili South Local Government Area, on Wednesday.
“APC party already has the votes and does not need to resort to vote-buying to secure victory in 2027,” the governor reportedly said at the rallies.
Timi said that the governor’s declaration underscored the party’s confidence in its growing grassroots support and its belief that the achievements of the APC-led governments at the state and federal levels had provided a compelling reason for the electorate to renew their mandates.
“Indeed, the developmental strides currently being witnessed across Delta cannot be divorced from the broader economic and policy direction of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
“The president’s bold economic reforms, fiscal restructuring and renewed emphasis on infrastructure development are creating opportunities for states to strengthen their development programmes and deliver greater dividends of democracy to their people.
“Gov. Oborevwori’s MORE Agenda is translating this broader policy direction into visible development through investments in roads, bridges, urban renewal and other critical infrastructure across the state.
“This alignment between the federal and state governments presents an opportunity for Delta to consolidate its progress and accelerate development,” he said.
Timi noted that for the people of Delta, the 2027 elections represent more than a political contest.
“They present an opportunity to sustain a development partnership that is already yielding results.
“A vote for President Tinubu is a vote for Gov. Sheriff Oborevwori, just as a vote for Oborevwori is a vote for the continuity of the Federal Government’s reform-driven development agenda in Delta,” he said.
The media and publicity secretary added that as the campaigns gathered momentum, the message was clear.
“If the people of Delta desire the continuation of ongoing infrastructural transformation, economic opportunities and purposeful governance, the path is to support President Bola Tinubu, Gov. Sheriff Oborevwori and all APC candidates in the 2027 elections,” he said.
