Anambra State Governor, Prof. Charles Soludo, made the announcement on Thursday during President Tinubu’s working visit to Anambra State.

The declaration was made at a grand reception held at Alex Ekwueme Square in Awka, where top government officials, APGA party stalwarts, and supporters gathered to welcome the president.

Speaking at the event, Governor Soludo highlighted the shared progressive ideals between APGA and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), underlining the need for collaboration among like-minded political forces.

“Progressives are working together for the development and unity of Nigeria,” Soludo said. “APGA has always supported progressive governance at the center, and we are reaffirming that commitment by adopting President Tinubu as our candidate for 2027.”

The endorsement marks a significant political development, positioning APGA as the first major opposition party to declare support for President Tinubu’s re-election bid. Political analysts view the move as a strategic alignment that could reshape Nigeria’s political landscape ahead of the 2027 presidential election.

President Tinubu, in his remarks, expressed appreciation for APGA’s support, promising to deepen collaboration with stakeholders across party lines to advance national development.
