Spokesperson for Ex-Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) State Chairmen's Forum Vows Support for President Tinubu
Ex-Chairmen of CPC Explain Their Backing for Tinubu in 2027
In a bold move, the Forum for State Chairmen of the dissolved Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) has declared its allegiance to President Bola Tinubu's regime, expressing the belief that it is their responsibility to back the president and help transform the All Progressives Congress (APC).
National Secretary of the Forum, Sulaiman Oyaremi, released a statement on Sunday, affirming their commitment to support Tinubu and contribute to the APC's evolution into an inclusive institution.
Oyaremi's statement continues, emphasizing that the Forum acknowledges the autonomy of individuals to either remain in or depart from the APC, viewing it as a manifestation of their democratic rights. However, the Former CPC State Chairmen's Forum maintains a unified position to stand by their principal, former President Muhammadu Buhari, within the party.
Despite varied opinions regarding the CPC's role within the APC, the Forum asserts that the vast majority of its members have decided to stay with the party, except for a select few who have chosen to leave.
