The All Progressives Congress, APC, National Chairman, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, has said Christians who supported former presidential candidate, Peter Obi in 2023 are now fully backing President Bola Tinubu.
He said the South South zone, which supported Obi and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, previously were now completely with Tinubu.
He made this known during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday.
According to Yilwatda: “In 2023 how many governors were in APC, how many do we have now? In 2023 how many House of Assembly members did we have? How many do we have now? Then we had over 50 senators now, we have over 90 senators.
“Some states like Plateau, Nasarawa, and a few other northern states, Christian communities supported Peter Obi in 2023 mainly due to religious sentiment.
“Are those sentiments still there? The answer is no, Today, they are fully with President Tinubu from the governors to NASS members are with Mr President.
“The South South was purely with PDP and Obi but Today all of them, the entire South South is now with Tinubu.”
