Former Lawmakers Back Tinubu for 2027 Presidency in Southern Nigeria
Former federal lawmakers from the southern region have endorsed Bola Ahmed Tinubu as their preferred candidate for the 2027 presidency. The decision was announced at a meeting in Abeokuta, Ogun State, emphasizing Tinubu's potential to consolidate reforms and promote national stability.
The support for Tinubu was seen as crucial in laying the foundation for the South's interests and the nation's development. The meeting aimed to reinforce unity among former legislators and amplify their voice on critical national issues.
With fewer than 15 former federal lawmakers currently serving in the president's cabinet, the endorsement signals a significant political alignment towards Tinubu's candidacy.
