President Bola Tinubu has praised the conduct of the 2026 APC primaries as a strong demonstration of internal democracy, expressing satisfaction with how governors managed the process across their states.
President Bola Tinubu on Saturday described the conduct of the 2026 All Progressives Congress primaries nationwide as a strong demonstration of internal democracy within the ruling party.
Tinubu made the remarks after casting his vote at the APC Presidential Primaries at Ikoyi-Obalende Ward L2 in Lagos, accompanied by his wife, Oluremi Tinubu.
“This is a demonstration of internal democracy, and it has been going on very well according to plan. This is grassroots politics where every member of the party has the right to participate. It shows that we have internal democracy and it’s peaceful and well organised,” he said.
On the performance of state governors, the president was equally glowing. “I am very satisfied that governors have done well in their various states, from the ward congresses to local government congresses to the delegate accreditation, validation, membership registration and the certification of the electoral process. It has been done very well,” he added.
Tinubu also praised electoral officials, party leaders and security agencies for ensuring a peaceful and credible exercise.
