The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, has projected a resounding victory for the ruling party in the 2027 general elections, citing what he described as the growing national acceptance of President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
Yilwatda made the assertion in Abuja on Sunday while receiving the leadership of Women Leaders Support Advancement, a political advocacy group championing enhanced inclusion of women in governance.
The APC chairman’s remarks come at a pivotal moment for the party as it intensifies internal consultations ahead of its National Caucus and National Executive Committee meetings, scheduled for December 18 and 19 at the Presidential Villa.
“Our party is fully prepared for the future, and by the grace of God, the APC will win convincingly in 2027,” Yilwatda declared.
He argued that President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda had broadened political participation for women and young people, adding that key policies of the administration reflect the country’s increasing demand for inclusive leadership.

“The Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is deliberately structured to address the concerns of women, youths, and all Nigerians who desire good governance and inclusive leadership,” he said.
Yilwatda also praised Nigerian women for their unwavering involvement in the party’s grassroots mobilisation, describing them as indispensable to the APC’s political strength.
“I want to appreciate your dedication and encourage you to remain consistent in taking the message of the APC to every community in Nigeria. Women remain the backbone of political mobilisation, and your role is critical to our success,” he added.
The meeting offered the visiting organisation an opportunity to reaffirm its commitment to strengthening women’s political engagement nationwide.
The group’s Matron and Co-founder, Dr Martina Yilwatda, emphasised the need for deeper community-level engagement.
“This platform must not only exist in name but must be felt in the homes, markets, and communities of our women. We must strengthen grassroots mobilisation, especially among women and youths, to deepen political participation and national development,” she said.
Founder of the group, Deborah Hornecker, accompanied by Secretary Zainab Musa, expressed gratitude to the APC leadership for its ongoing support.
“We assure you that Women Leaders Support Advancement will mobilise women across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory to support the APC and ensure victory for the party in 2027,” she said.
The delegation further pledged to amplify the achievements of the Tinubu administration and promote women’s increased participation in national politics.
Yilwatda’s confidence in a sweeping victory comes as the APC continues to consolidate its structures nationwide and fine-tune its strategy ahead of the 2027 polls.
