2027: Emami, others endorse Tinubu for President
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Ayirimi Emami, as well as teeming supporters and members of the party in Delta South Senatorial District, have endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as sole candidate in the 2027 presidential election.
Chief Emami who returned to a grand welcome to mark his 50th birthday at Ugbuwangue, Warri South Local Government Area, Saturday, expressed excitement at the turn of events politically in the state over the past one month.
The Delta South Senatorial chairman, Austin Oribioye; Prince Yemi Emiko, Sir Amorighoye Mene, were among other party chieftains in attendance.
The APC leader urged all members of the party to embrace unity, especially now that they have one “father,” President Tinubu.
Noting that the collapse of the Delta chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) into the ruling APC was a welcome development, he emphasised the need for continued support for President Tinubu, as well as the state Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori.
He however warned serving lawmakers in the state not to expect automatic tickets stressing that their various positions will be keenly.
“Before I returned from my trip, so many things happened, PDP collapsed into APC in Delta state. I did election, I lost governorship; I didn’t do election, I got governorship. I did an election, I lost the House of Representative, I didn’t do an election, I got the House of Representative.
“PDP has come and we are all one. I can proudly say that I have a governor. I have no reason to be angry.
“We must live together. The most important thing is that we have agreed that we have one father, Tinubu. So we will continue to be behind Jagaban so that he can continue to do his good works. We know things are hard, but he is not the cause.
