Adeniji: Why RECAP Is Rooting For Tinubu’s Second Term

Segun Awofadeji, reporting from Bauchi, provides coverage of the Renewal Congress of Aladura and Celestial Churches in Politics (RECAP), a faith-based political advocacy group. In an interview with THISDAY, RECAP National Coordinator Adebayo Adeniji expressed the organization's steadfast commitment to upholding righteous leadership, civic responsibility, national development, and values-based governance.

Adeniji emphasized that RECAP's allegiance to these principles is rooted in biblical teachings and the progressive ideals of the All Progressives Congress (APC). The group believes that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu merits the chance to continue his reforms and policies from the first term of his administration. Adeniji highlighted that Tinubu's willingness to implement challenging yet necessary reforms speaks to his dedication to repositioning Nigeria's economy for enduring prosperity.

He stressed that the administration's focus on infrastructure development, economic revitalization, and institutional reforms requires time to yield full benefits, as significant growth often necessitates difficult transitions. RECAP acknowledges the temporary hardships experienced due to economic adjustments but remains steadfast in its support for policies that foster stability and policy continuity.

Adeniji pointed out that President Tinubu's administration has prioritized stability and policy consistency, which are essential for achieving national progress. The Renewed Hope agenda aligns with RECAP's conviction that Nigeria can be a nation where justice, opportunity, and prosperity are accessible to all citizens, irrespective of their ethnicity, region, or religious affiliation.

Adeniji also emphasized RECAP's commitment to inclusive governance and the promotion of unity through collaboration among diverse groups for the common good. As a faith-based movement, RECAP encourages believers to actively engage in shaping the nation's future through lawful democratic participation, including supporting candidates whose vision aligns with national development.

The coordinator stressed that RECAP's mission is to mobilize, educate, and empower members of Aladura and Celestial Churches to play an active role in the democratic process through voter registration, lawful voting, civic engagement, and responsible political participation.
