The United Kingdom (UK) Chapter of the All Progressive Congress has given reason for endorsing President Bola Tinubu’s bid for a second term in office.
Presenting a letter of endorsement officially to the National Secretary of the APC, Surajudeen Ajibola Basiru, and the Chief of Staff to the National Chairman, Muhammed Garba at an event held in London, APC said the letter dated May 19, 2025, was jointly signed by the chairman of the APC UK, Hon Tunde Doherty and secretary, Chief Momoh Obaro, and addressed to the APC National Working Committee under the leadership of the chairman of the party, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje and President Tinubu
While commending the NWC’s strategic leadership, inclusive decision-making, and efforts to strengthen party unity and internal democracy, the UK chapter said its decision to support President Tinubu’s second term bid was based on the administration’s achievements across all sectors of the Nigerian economy, including infrastructure development, economic stabilisation, security reform and youth empowerment.
The group stated also that the bold reforms and proactive diplomacy embarked upon by the Tinubu’s administration have repositioned Nigeria on the global stage.
The endorsement, according to the APC UK, will be formally ratified at a major event later this year in United Kingdom, with invitation extended to the President and the party’s national executives.
“We are convinced beyond reasonable doubt that the various milestones recorded within the two years of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration are enough for us to endorse him for a second term.
“In political parlance, we say one good term deserves another and on that basis, the APC UK chapter is supporting President Bola Tinubu’s second term in office.
“The endorsement will be formally ratified at a major event later this year in the UK, with an invitation extended to the president and the party’s national executives.
“We support the”Renewed Hope” agenda and we are ready to play a key role in mobilising the diaspora community in support of the Tinubu administration and the APC as Nigeria moves toward the 2027 general elections,” the group stated.
