Southwest APC leaders back Tinubu’s re-election, Mimiko says

APC leaders and stakeholders in Nigeria’s six Southwest states agreed to set aside internal disputes and support Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027, former Ondo State Governor Olusegun Mimiko said. Speaking after a meeting in Ikeja, Lagos, Mimiko cited a more predictable tertiary education calendar and digital infrastructure as achievements of the administration. The stakeholders plan to explain economic reforms in simple terms and local languages, and support expanding access to higher education and the proposed creation of state police.
