Kwara 2027: Group Writes APC NWC, Tinubu, Makes Case for Femi Sanni ARABA

Kwara Youth For Good Governance (KYFGG) has urged President Bola Tinubu to support governorship aspiration of Engr Femi Sanni ARABA.

The Group via an open letter addressed to the National Working Committee of All Progressives Congress and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu said Femi Sanni possesses broad acceptability in the state.

According to them, the challenge before the party is not about zoning, sentiment or preserving old political calculations, the challenge is leadership. The difficult task of maintaining unity while preparing for the future. What APC needs now is not another compromise candidate. It needs a leader who can command respect across factions, restore confidence among party faithful and reconnect the party with the wider electorate.

They noted that the Business Mogul a founding member of the Progressive family with long standing history of loyalty.

The letter reads in part: “This is why the conversation around Engr. Femi Sanni (ARABA) deserves serious attention. For some, the first question is: “But he is a Christian.” The more important question should be: “Can he lead APC through this moment?” The answer many party members are increasingly arriving at is YES.

“He understands the party’s history, its sacrifices, its victories and its wounds. In a period when APC needs healing as much as it needs winning, that experience matters.”

KYFGG affirmed that Sanni is a bridge-builder with strong network across political blocs and across religious and social divides.

“Kwara has long been admired as a state where Muslims and Christians coexist peacefully. The emergence of a Christian APC candidate would definitely not represent a departure from Kwara’s identity; rather, would reinforce the state’s tradition of inclusion and mutual respect. With the right running mate from, the ticket would reflect both competence and balance, preserving cultural expectations while projecting unity.” They added

The Group appealed to President Bola Tinubu and APC leadership to take bold decisions by prioritizing leadership quality, party unity and statewide acceptability.
