2027: APC France Chapter Backs Tinubu, Shettima, Pledges Massive Diaspora Mobilisation

The France chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima for a second term in 2027, vowing to mobilise Nigerians in the diaspora to support their re-election bid.
In a statement issued on Wednesday in Abuja by its chairperson, Hajia Amina Suzuki, the chapter said its decision followed a “rigorous assessment” of the administration’s performance, concluding that the government’s policy direction has begun to reposition Nigeria despite prevailing economic challenges.
The group cited reforms under the Renewed Hope Agenda, including fiscal adjustments, renewed focus on the oil and gas sector, and efforts to attract investment, as signs that confidence in Nigeria’s economy is gradually being restored.
While acknowledging that some of the reforms have come with short-term difficulties, the chapter described them as necessary steps toward long-term stability and inclusive growth.
“As Nigerians in the diaspora, we closely monitor global economic indicators and investor sentiment. Nigeria’s economic narrative is changing for the better. The resilience demonstrated by this administration, alongside its commitment to infrastructure development, social investment, security enhancement and youth empowerment, stands as proof of purposeful governance,” the statement read.
The chapter also commended Vice President Shettima’s role in policy coordination and implementation, saying his office has strengthened the administration’s capacity to deliver on its mandate.
Beyond endorsing the ticket, the APC France Chapter unveiled plans for active mobilisation ahead of the 2027 polls, pledging grassroots engagement, voter education and strategic outreach.
“We are committed to returning home in our numbers to participate in mobilisation efforts to ensure a resounding victory at the polls. Nigeria is on a journey of renewal. This is the time to consolidate progress,” the statement added.
The chapter called on Nigerians at home and abroad to rally behind the Tinubu-Shettima ticket to sustain what it described as ongoing national transformation.
