3 October 2026 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE LABOUR PARTY YOUTH LEADERS PROPOSES ALLIGNMENT WITH APC, TO SUPPORT PRESIDENT TINUBU’S RE-ELECTION WITH CITY BOY MOVEMENT AND TINUBU SUPPORT GROUP. Abuja, Nigeria – The Youth Wing of the Labour Party has initiated discussions on a proposed political alignment with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), the Renewed Hope Movement, the City Boy Movement and Tinubu Support Groups to declare support for the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR. The proposal emerged during a virtual meeting held on 2nd October, 2026 at 8:30 pm involving the Labour Party National Youth Leader, Prince Kennedy Ahanotu, members of the National Youth Leadership, National Zonal Youth Leaders and State Youth Leaders, where participants deliberated on the party's political direction given the prolonged crisis and the future of youth participation in national governance ahead of the 2027 general elections. During the meeting, several youth leaders expressed concerns about what they described as inadequate recognition, total negligence, lack of engagements and no support for the youth constituency during and after the 2023 general elections where they laboured in vain for a presidential candidate who lacked the skills to consolidate. They emphasized the need for a political platform and leader that would provide greater opportunities for youth participation, leadership development, economic empowerment, and inclusion in national decision-making. The meeting also featured discussions on the policies and programmes of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration, particularly in the areas of human capital development, youth empowerment, economic reforms, infrastructure, healthcare, education, security, agriculture and workers' welfare. Participants expressed varying views on these issues and the potential implications for Nigeria's sustainable development. Following extensive deliberations, the youth leaders called on the National Youth Leader, Prince Kennedy Ahanotu, to commence with immediate effect consultations with relevant stakeholders within the APC, the Renewed Hope Movement, the City Boy Movement and the Tinubu Support Group to explore the prospects of a political alignment and possible collaboration ahead of the 2027 elections. The participants also expressed confidence in Prince Kennedy Ahanotu's leadership and mandated him to facilitate the proposed alignments while emphasizing the importance of broad-based consultations and consensus-building among the youth leadership. The meeting further proposed a physical gathering of Labour Party youth leaders in Abuja, on a mutually agreed date, to review the outcome of the consultations and determine the next steps regarding the proposed political re-alignment. The proposed engagement represents an ongoing dialogue within the Labour Party's youth constituency on political participation, strategic partnerships, and the role of young Nigerians in shaping the country's political and developmental future.

If Peter Obi becomes president, he won't steal and people in his cabinet won't steal. The president's body language matters, even though I don't support him __ Rotimi Amaechi

Europe never believed Africa had a capable, corrupti0n-free politician until they met Peter Obi one on one. GO AND VERIFY!

The more unrealistic votes Okpebholo promises Tïnubu, the more Edo people show support for Peter Obi 😆
