In Nigerian politics, where comebacks are rare and loyalties shift like the tides, a Lagos-based group is staking its hope on a return ticket. The South West Political Renaissance Group has endorsed President Bola Tinubu and former Governor Akinwunmi Ambode for 2027, calling for recognition of past leadership and a continuity of vision. Their message? Don’t just move forward, circle back with purpose.
According to Vanguard, the South West Political Renaissance Group has called for the re-election of President Tinubu and the return of Ambode as Lagos Governor. The group frames its support as rooted in recognisable leadership and unfinished legacies, especially in Lagos' infrastructure and governance.
- A Lagos-based group, SWPRG, endorses Tinubu and Ambode for the 2027 elections
- Ambode, denied a second term in 2019, sees growing support for a political comeback
- SWPRG praises both leaders for their infrastructural and leadership contributions
- Support for Tinubu’s re-election is also building beyond Lagos, including South East groups
- APC’s recent NEC meeting signalled internal support for Tinubu’s continuation in office
As Nigeria looks toward 2027, the political drumbeats are beginning early, echoes of ambition, memory, and a longing for perceived stability
