The Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), made up of governors elected under the All Progressives Congress (APC), has reiterated the unity and strength of the party, asserting that it remains Nigeria’s largest and most stable political force, well-positioned for success in the 2027 general elections.
Hope Uzodinma, the Chairman of the PGF and Governor of Imo State, shared this message during a visit to former President Muhammadu Buhari at his Kaduna residence.
After a private meeting with Buhari, Uzodinma spoke to the press, calling the visit a gesture of solidarity and a demonstration of the APC’s internal cohesion.
“The visit followed the conclusion of Ramadan, Lent, and Eid-el-Fitr celebrations, and we thought it important to come and pay homage to President Buhari, who served two terms under the APC,” Uzodinma explained.
He also highlighted Buhari’s significance within the party.
“President Buhari is a father figure to us in the APC. We are pleased to find him in good health and sound mind,” Uzodinma said.
The Imo State Governor expressed gratitude to Buhari for his leadership and his pivotal role in establishing a unified political structure that helped the APC retain power.
“The APC is growing stronger and has the capacity to govern Nigeria effectively. This strength comes from our ability to consult widely and prioritize national interest above personal ambitions,” he stated.
Uzodinma also emphasized that maintaining internal unity and strong leadership is critical for the party’s continued electoral success.
