Renewed Hope Ambassadors Urge Wike to Support APC Structures Ahead 2027 Polls

The State Coordinators of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors (RHA), have urged Wike, to support the APC Structure ahead of the 2027 presidential election in the country.

The group noted that the minister should not act against political arrangements that could weaken the APC and disrupt the commitment of the party’s governors to President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election.

The coordinators, in a statement signed on Thursday by representatives from different geopolitical zones, said they welcomed support for President Tinubu’s re-election bid from Nigerians across political divides, but warned that such support should not undermine the APC, its candidates or existing party structures.

They expressed support for the position of the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), saying APC governors had made their commitment clear to President Tinubu and the party’s candidates at all levels.

The group raised concerns over the emerging Rainbow Coalition, noting that while different support groups could mobilise for the President, parallel political structures should not create confusion or compete with existing APC grassroots organisations.

“Minister Wike is entitled to mobilise support for President Tinubu. He has made it clear that the coalition is separate from the APC and is intended to mobilise support for the President across political parties,” the statement said.

“But if that mobilisation begins to work against APC candidates or creates competing centres of political authority in states and local communities, then it is reasonable for APC leaders and governors to draw a clear line.”
