Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State and Chairman, North Central Governors Forum, has said that as the country inches towards the 2027 general election, the Tinubu/Shettima team is unbeatable.

According to the Governor, with the entire North Central now in the folds of the ruling party, President Ahmed Bola Tinubu’s reelection come 2027 is further reassured.
“Today we are very happy in the North Central. We are complete. Kwara, Kogi are APC. Niger, Plateau, APC. Nasarawa, Benue, APC. We strongly believe that my brother, Barrister Calep Manasseh Muftwang, has made the right choice by joining us in the APC.
“Today, we can say everywhere you go, in Plateau, Kogi, Niger, Benue, Kwara and Nasarawa, it’s all APC. With this development and more, our President Ahmed Bola Tinubu will win his election easily here on the Plateau,” he stated.
Governor Sule said politicians are trooping into the APC because of their conviction in Team Tinubu/Shettima, stressing that there is no team yet that can beat that of the ruling APC.
“We are all here because we strongly believe that we have an excellent team, the Tinubu/Shettima team. There is no team that can beat that. We understand that in the North Central. We will witness more successes come 2027,” he said.
In his remarks during the event, National Chairman of the APC, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, described the occasion as a turning point for the people of Plateau State.

“I pledged that you will never be disappointed. We will never turn our backs on the people, we will protect the Plateau heritage,” he said.
On his part, Plateau State Governor, Barrister Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang, described the event as historic, ushering the state on a journey of redefining the political demographics of Nigeria.
