Renewed Hope Project 2027 Aims for 100,000 Lagos Votes

The students’ wing of the Renewed Hope Project 2027 has set a target of over 100,000 votes from tertiary institutions in Lagos State for the re-election of President Bola Tinubu and the election of Obafemi Hazmat as the governorship candidate. Inaugurated in Lagos, the initiative aims to mobilize students and young people ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Lagos State Students’ Coordinator, Sanni Olamide, stated that the group has coordinators in 10 major tertiary institutions and plans to engage students through campus-to-campus mobilization and outreach. The initiative will also provide a platform for students to engage with policymakers and will include organizing Lagos Students Policy and Development Symposia and town-hall meetings.

Additionally, a proposed one-million-man march is planned to support Tinubu's re-election and the Renewed Hope Agenda. Ali Balogun, the All Progressives Congress candidate for Somolu Constituency II, encouraged youth participation in nation-building, emphasizing the importance of education beyond mere certification.
