The former Northern Legislators under the aegis of Forum of Former Northern Legislators on Saturday, have joined forces to pass a vote of confidence on President Bola Tinubu’s administration seeking his second term election.
The move inspired made in Abeokuta, Ogun State, during the Southern Summit of Former Legislators 2025, organised by the National Forum of Former Legislators, endorsing his re-election for a second term of office in 2027.
The Northern forum led by the Hon. Fai Ahmed Chachangi and the former Speaker of the House of Representatives (HoR), Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara, the Forum highlights its endorsement of Tinubu for a second term on the belief that such would drive the much-desired progress and unity for the country.
They also affirmed that Tinubu’s continuity in 2027 will strike a balance in the polity of the country.
The Forum, however, urged the Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led federal government to step up efforts in the fight against insecurity, particularly in Zamfara, Niger, Plateau, and Borno States.
The forum also advised that Tinubu’s administration should further evolve policies that bring unity among the six geopolitical zones rather than those that may cause division and bickering.
Earlier in his opening address, the National Coordinator of National Forum of Former Legislators, Hon. Raphael Nnanna Igbokwe commended the President Tinubu led Federal Government’s innovative reforms such as the establishment of the Regional Development Commissions; the deregulation of the electricity sector that gave states, the powers to generate and regulate electricity; the Financial Autonomy for Local Governments; the Call for State Police and the Student Loan Scheme (NELFUND).
According to Igbokwe, these reforms have positively impacted the potential of driving even development in all regions of the country and bringing development to the grassroots.
Igbokwe, however, called for greater co-operation from State Governments across the country to complement those Federal Government actions towards ensuring that those innovative reforms are sustained.
