APC and Tinubu 2027 Alliance Clash Over Alia's Support
The Benue State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is in conflict with the Benue Strategic Alliance for Tinubu 2027 regarding support for Governor Hyacinth Alia’s re-election bid. The Benue Strategic Alliance, led by loyalists of Senator George Akume, announced that they are not mobilizing for Alia's re-election.
Dan-Morgan Ihomun, the group's Publicity Secretary, stated that they are collaborating with all political parties that support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the 2027 elections. Following a meeting in Abuja, the group appointed Chief Akange Audu as Director-General.
The Alliance aims to support Tinubu's re-election and candidates from the APC State Executive Committee led by Austin Agada. In response, APC Publicity Secretary Benedict Yawe declared that anyone opposing Alia's re-election is not a true APC member, emphasizing that the party supports all its candidates, including Tinubu.
Yawe expressed confidence in Alia's ability to secure re-election.
