CUPP Criticizes APC Governors’ Endorsement of Tinubu for 2027.

The Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP) has condemned the recent endorsement of President Bola Tinubu as the sole All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the 2027 presidential election. The group described the move as a sign of political desperation and a reaction to growing public dissatisfaction.

In a statement issued by its National Secretary, Peter Ameh, CUPP expressed concern over the endorsement, which occurred at an APC summit. At the event, Imo State Governor and Chairman of the Progressives Governors Forum proposed Tinubu as the sole candidate, with support from Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani.

CUPP argued that this early declaration, just two years into Tinubu’s presidency, reflects unease within the ruling party and a lack of connection to the everyday struggles of Nigerians facing economic hardship.

Ameh stated that the decision seems driven by fear of voter backlash and does not represent the desires of the electorate. He warned against any attempt to undermine the democratic process and emphasized the importance of the 2027 elections as a critical test for the country’s democracy.

He urged Nigerians to stay alert and committed to defending their voting rights, stating that the public will not allow their voice to be silenced or their votes manipulated.
