The Yoruba Council of Elders (YCE) has declared its support for the re-election of President Bola Tinubu in 2027.

The declaration was made in a statement made available to journalists by its Secretary-General, Dipo Oyewole, in Ibadan on Monday.

The Council’s stance was attributed to its commitment to economic reforms, infrastructure development and national stability.

The YCE said, “President Tinubu inherited enormous economic and security challenges but has demonstrated courage and determination in addressing them through far-reaching reforms. The removal of fuel subsidy, exchange rate reforms and efforts to attract investment are difficult decisions that require time to produce the desired outcomes.

“The administration should be given the opportunity to consolidate its programmes. Despite the initial hardships associated with some of the reforms, there are signs that the economy is gradually stabilising.”

The Council also lauded the Federal Government’s interventions in infrastructure, education, agriculture and social investment programmes, saying such initiatives are laying the foundation for sustainable development.

It therefore urged Nigerians to support the President’s re-election bid in 2027 to ensure continuity of policies and programmes aimed at repositioning the country.

The endorsement, it said, was not based on ethnic considerations but on what it described as a realistic appraisal of the administration’s performance and prospects. The YCE said it remained committed to promoting national unity, good governance and the welfare of all Nigerians, irrespective of ethnic, religious or political affiliations.

It expressed optimism that with sustained support and policy consistency, the country would overcome its current challenges and achieve greater economic growth and political stability.
