The Minister of Power, Joseph Tegbe, has called on the All Progressives Congress (APC) members and support groups in Oyo State to close ranks and deliver victory for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and all the party’s candidates in the 2027 general elections,
The Minister stated that the President’s bold and audacious power sector reforms are already producing modest improvements in very short period, and positively impacting people’s lives.
He made the call during a series of engagements in Ibadan, beginning with the APC Reconciliation Committee, led by its Chairman, Senator Olufemi Lanlehin.
He commended the committee for healing the party after the primaries and promised to back its efforts by reaching out to aggrieved aspirants.
The Minister urged party leaders to ensure that all interests and political tendencies within the party are carried along and promised to continue to support the party.
Tegbe charged the groups to take the message to the grassroots and mobilise voters for the President’s re-election and for APC candidates at every level.
He told them that one of the strongest arguments they carry into the communities is what the reforms are doing for ordinary Nigerians.
According to him, “Under President Tinubu, the nation continues to record high generation and transmission, which have risen above 5,300MW in recent weeks. More power available on and off the grid means more electricity available to homes, markets, workshops and factories, and it strengthens the case for the industrial growth and job creation the President has promised.”
