South-east APC Leaders Counter Peter Obi, Back Tinubu for 2023 Presidency

South-east APC leaders and elders are countering Peter Obi's declaration of full membership in the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and his presidential ambitions for 2027. They are rallying support for Bola Tinubu's second term bid, with key figures like Hope Uzodimma and Ken Nnamani endorsing Tinubu.

The move aims to consolidate support for Tinubu in the region and prevent the scattering of votes across multiple parties. The meeting held in Enugu saw a resolution to back Tinubu as the undisputed presidential candidate for 2027.
