Diaspora APC Leader Pledges One Million Votes for Tinubu’s 2027 Re-Election

The Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Benin Republic Chapter, and Coordinator-General of the G6 ECOWAS Diaspora Support Groups, Hon. Alhaji Zine Adeboye Wale Adeyemo, has expressed strong support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration, describing his leadership as significant to Nigeria's ongoing economic and infrastructural development.

Adeyemo also pledged to mobilise one million diaspora votes in support of President Tinubu's re-election bid in the 2027 general elections.

He made the declarations during a visit to Nigeria to pay his final respects to his late surrogate mother, Madam Lion Kudirat Modupe Bankole.

Speaking during an interview, the APC chieftain commended the Tinubu administration for what he described as bold economic reforms, particularly the removal of fuel subsidy, unification of the foreign exchange market, introduction of student loan initiatives and efforts to strengthen food security and national security.

He argued that the reforms, despite the challenges associated with their implementation, were aimed at repositioning the Nigerian economy and establishing a sustainable foundation for future generations.

Adeyemo also highlighted the administration's infrastructure agenda, particularly the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway and the Sokoto-Badagry Superhighway, describing the projects as important investments in national connectivity and long-term economic development.

According to him, sustained implementation of the administration's policies and programmes would be necessary to achieve their intended objectives.

He urged Nigerians to support continuity in governance, arguing that President Tinubu should be given the opportunity to consolidate ongoing reforms and complete the administration's development agenda.

The APC diaspora leader, who also serves as Deputy Director-General of GMT 2027 for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, said he was prepared to mobilise Nigerians living across the ECOWAS region and other diaspora communities towards the president's 2027 re-election campaign.

He specifically declared his commitment to galvanising one million diaspora votes, stressing that Nigerians abroad had an important role to play in the country's political and developmental future.

Adeyemo maintained that continuity in the current administration's policies was important to Nigeria's economic and structural development, while dismissing comparisons with opposition political figures.

He expressed confidence that sustained engagement and mobilisation among Nigerians in the diaspora would strengthen support for the president ahead of the 2027 general elections.
