“We also decided to meet with the party’s leaders to plan for the upcoming 2027 presidential and National Assembly elections.”

The PGF chairman said the forum also decided to keep working with the APC leadership to help, support, and make them stronger and ready for the future elections.

The meeting had governors from Ekiti, Zamfara, Taraba, Lagos, Sokoto, Kano, Kaduna, Gombe, Kebbi, Akwa Ibom, and Borno states, along with others.
