“His emergence signals a generational shift, one that aligns with the need for innovation, discipline, and renewed vision within the party.”

“With his technocratic background and reformist mindset, I believe he has the capacity to reconcile internal divisions, rejuvenate party structures, and build strong alliances across Nigeria’s diverse political landscape.
