Presidential aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives Congress , Stanley Osifo, has expressed confidence that President Bola Tinubu would support him should he emerge victorious in the party’s presidential primary ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Osifo, currently the only challenger seeking the APC presidential ticket alongside Tinubu, stated that the ruling party remains united despite the contest for its presidential nomination.
Speaking during an interview on Arise News, the presidential hopeful said the outcome of the primary election would determine the strength of his chances against the incumbent president, stressing that incumbency alone does not guarantee victory.
He said, “For chances I can’t really state or detect now, I think the day of the election will really tell the extent or the level of chance I have against him.
“Being an incumbent is not a guarantee that the election is going to go his way or my way, but one thing that is important is that we are one party and we are not fighting ourselves.
“We are members of the All Progressives Congress, so if I defeat him at the end of the day, I think he also have to work with me.
“And if he wins the same thing, I will work with him and support him. So we’re not fighting in the All Progressives Congress, it is one party, and I strongly believe that we have an understanding amongst ourselves as APC members.”
