Yilwatda says the APC will secure a strong victory in the 2027 elections
The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, has expressed strong confidence that the ruling party will record a major victory in the 2027 general elections. He said this optimism is driven by what he sees as increasing nationwide support for President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
Yilwatda made this known in Abuja on Sunday while hosting members of the Women Leaders Support Advancement, a political group advocating for greater participation of women in leadership.
His statement comes as the APC steps up internal engagements ahead of its National Caucus and National Executive Committee meetings, set for December 18 and 19 at the Presidential Villa.
According to him, the APC is “fully ready for what lies ahead,” adding that, by God’s grace, the party will win the 2027 polls with a wide margin. He maintained that President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda has opened up more opportunities for young people and women, aligning with the push for a more inclusive political environment.
He encouraged women to continue standing behind the President and the APC, stressing that they play a vital role in grassroots political mobilisation.
“I appreciate your commitment. Keep spreading the APC message in every community across the country,” he told the delegation.
“Women are central to political mobilisation, and your contribution is key to our success.”
The meeting also gave the visiting group an avenue to restate their commitment to deeper national engagement.
The organisation’s Matron and Co-founder, Dr. Martina Yilwatda, urged members to make their presence felt at the grassroots level.
“This platform must be active in homes, markets, and communities,” she said, emphasizing the need to engage women and young people to strengthen national development.
Founder Deborah Hornecker and Secretary Zainab Musa thanked the APC chairman and his wife for their encouragement.
They pledged that the group would mobilise women in all 36 states and the FCT to work for the APC’s victory in 2027.
The delegation also reaffirmed its commitment to publicizing the achievements of President Tinubu’s government and promoting broader participation of women in national politics.
Yilwatda’s remarks come as the APC continues to reinforce its structures nationwide and sharpen its strategy ahead of the next general election.
