Araraume Hails Tinubu’s Untiring Leadership As Party Elects New NEC, Says National Chairman’s Return Reflects His Leadership Style

Senator Ifeanyi Araraume, a prominent chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has hailed the successful conclusion of the party’s national convention, which saw the emergence of a new National Executive Committee (NEC) led by Professor Netanwe Yilwatda.

In a statement, Araraume attributed the convention’s peaceful conduct and seamless emergence of the NEC to the firm leadership, wise counsel, and untiring leadership style of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the leader of the party, qualities that have significantly strengthened the APC and positioned it for greater unity and progress.

Turning his attention to the National Chairman, Professor Yilwatda, Araraume noted that it was the Chairman’s own proven leadership style, marked by inclusivity, discipline, and strategic vision, that enabled his return by the party as National Chairman. He stressed that expectations are now very high on him.

“The National Chairman must leverage the very leadership style that brought him back to consolidate the party’s unity and deliberately create room for new entrants into the APC,” Araraume said.

“His responsible leadership will, in turn, produce responsible party faithful, men and women of integrity, competence, and vision, who will champion the future of Nigeria and secure victory for the party in the coming elections.”

Araraume urged the new NEC to build on this momentum, focusing on delivering party primary elections that will produce the party’s candidates for the 2027 polls, while welcoming fresh stakeholders into the APC fold.

He prayed for God’s guidance and blessings on the new NEC, adding, “May they work tirelessly to justify the confidence reposed in them and take our great party to even greater heights.”
