Stanley Osifo, a presidential aspirant under the All Progressives Congress (APC), has expressed confidence that President Bola Tinubu would back his candidacy if he emerges as the party’s flagbearer for the 2027 elections.
During an appearance on Arise TV last Sunday, Osifo emphasized that the various aspirants within the APC are not adversaries. He argued that holding the presidency does not automatically secure victory in the primary election.
Osifo stated that unity remains a core strength of the APC, noting that members are not in competition but in collaboration. He remarked, “If I secure the nomination, Tinubu will work with me; conversely, if he wins, I will fully support him.” He added that there exists a strong mutual understanding among party members.
