2027: Peace will deliver Rivers for Tinubu - Akpabio

Godswill Akpabio, the President of the Senate, has stated that the peace and unity currently prevailing in Rivers State will aid President Bola Tinubu's victory in the 2027 presidential election. The Senator highlighted the cooperation among political leaders and stakeholders in the state, which has created the necessary conditions for the All Progressives Congress, APC, to secure Rivers votes for Tinubu. Akpabio made these remarks at a rally held at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium in Port Harcourt on Saturday.

Addressing the South-South region, the Special Assistant on Media for Akpabio, Jackson Udom, said, "The ingredient needed in this zone, particularly Rivers State, to return you to the Villa on January 16, 2027, is peace. There is total peace in Rivers State, and with the unity among political leaders and stakeholders, Mr President will be delivered."

Akpabio further elaborated, "Rivers was the only state in the South-South that voted for the APC in 2023, and we are confident that the people will once again support President Tinubu in 2027."
