Tinubu’s reforms yielding positive results – APC State commissioners
Commissioners for Information from All Progressives Congress (APC)-governed states have praised President Bola Tinubu’s administration for its bold and strategic reforms, describing them as foundational steps toward national development.
This commendation came during the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF) Quarterly Strategy Meeting, held April 24–25, 2025, at the PGF Secretariat in Asokoro, Abuja.
The gathering aimed to strengthen strategic communication, align state-level policies, and enhance democratic accountability within APC states.
The forum, organized under the PGF Secretariat and aligned with the Renewed Hope Agenda of the Tinubu administration, provided a platform for peer review, experience sharing, and harmonization of communication strategies.
In a communiqué issued at the end of the meeting, the commissioners expressed appreciation for the resilience and support of Nigerians amid ongoing economic reforms, assuring that positive outcomes are beginning to manifest.
They pledged unwavering loyalty to Progressive Governors and reaffirmed their commitment to transparency, accountability, and performance-based governance.
The forum also adopted the PGF National Value Reorientation Campaign, aimed at rebuilding public trust, fostering patriotism, and promoting responsible citizenship.
Commissioners resolved to domesticate the campaign in their respective states through strategic messaging, grassroots engagement, and inter-state collaboration.
They emphasized the importance of ongoing capacity building and the institutionalization of a quarterly APC States Communication Strategy Review Forum to reinforce these efforts.
Attendees included Gbenga Omotoso (Lagos), Sagir Musa Ahmed (Jigawa), Kayode Akinmade (Ogun), Kingsley Femi Fanwo (Kogi), Erasmus Ekpang (Cross River), Taiwo Olatunbosun (Ekiti), Binta Mamman (Niger), Ibrahim Tanko (Nasarawa), Ibraheem Musa (Kaduna), Sambo Bello Danchadi (Sokoto), Paul Ohonbamu (Edo), Yusuf Ali (Yobe), and PGF Director General, Folorunso S. Aluko.
The embattled National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress, David Mark, on Friday held a closed-door meeting with leaders of the Peoples Redemption Party in Abuja. The private consultation is seen as a fresh round of political moves as the ADC continues to battle a lingering leadership crisis and growing internal divisions.
Top figures from both parties were said to be present at the meeting, including PRP National Chairman Hakeem Baba-Ahmed and senior ADC officials. The development is already drawing attention as opposition parties continue realignments ahead of the 2027 political season, with many watching closely for possible alliances and next steps in the party crisis.

“ADC is a Holy Party, Cannot be used to Scam Nigerians Again” – Hon Success Opara tells David Mark
ADC Party in Turmoil: Hon Success Opara Slams Leadership, Warns Against Scamming Nigerians
Abuja, Nigeria – The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is facing internal strife as Hon Success Opara, a prominent party official, has warned against attempts to use the party to deceive Nigerians. Opara specifically criticized the leadership of David Mark, stating that the party cannot be used to scam citizens again.
“ADC holy Party cannot be used to scam Nigerians again,” Opara said, emphasizing that those forming coalitions are hindering the party’s growth and denying youths opportunities to thrive.
“Those who are forming coalition don’t want to give the youths the chance to strive in the party,” she added.
Opara’s statement highlights the deepening divisions within the ADC, with concerns over leadership and the party’s direction.
The factional National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Nafiu Bala Gombe, has announced that the party under his leadership will bar individuals above the age of 55 from contesting for political positions.
Gombe made the disclosure during an interview with BBC Hausa, where he outlined a vision centred on generational change and greater youth participation in politics.
“The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is a party that belongs to all Nigerians. What we are doing now is to ensure the party moves forward properly.
“We have decided that we will give the youths a real chance. The time has come for young people to take the lead in politics.
“If you are over 55 years old, you are not going to contest for positions in the ADC under our leadership.
“We want to bring in fresh blood, new ideas, and energy from the youth. Nigeria’s future depends on the young generation.
“The old ways have not worked well for the country. We need to open the door wide for youths to participate fully as candidates, leaders, and decision-makers,” he said.
