The chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on FERMA, Aderemi Oseni, says President Bola Tinubu will record a landslide victory in the South-West in 2027.
Mr Oseni, the member representing the Ibarapa East/Ido Federal Constituency of Oyo State in the House of Representatives, spoke with journalists on Sunday in Lagos.
The lawmaker said the people of the region would vote for the president massively, as political stakeholders in the zone are already working towards victory ahead of 2027.
He noted that his support group, Remi Oseni Committee of Friends (ROCOF), comprising over 200,000 people, had hit the ground running in the six South-West states, mobilising support for the president. He said it plans to win 10 million votes for the president.
Mr Oseni commended the various reforms and development strides of the president.
“In the South-West, we have a vision to achieve at least 75 per cent of voter turnout and ensure APC secures nothing less than 10 million votes in the presidential election,” he said.
He said that the group would leverage the gains of the president’s reform to mobilise support for the APC and ensure the party secures a landslide victory in Oyo State ,South-West, and beyond.
Mr Oseni said Mr Tinubu had exceeded expectations in the delivery of legacy projects.
“We have been to nearly all states of the federation where the federal government is either rehabilitating or reconstructing federal roads or constructing new ones.
“Our findings clearly show that Nigeria is in transition from the period of deplorable road infrastructure to an era of linking our economy to the development of strategic transport infrastructure projects.
“We have also seen the speed at which the administration of President Tinubu is implementing his legacy projects,” he said.
According to him, the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway and Sokoto-Badagry superhighways are notable examples of these legacy projects.
The lawmaker said the resolve of Mr Tinubu’s administration to reconstruct the Ibadan-Ilesa-Akure-Benin highways was also notable.
He said it was unfortunate that the opposition only talks about the challenges in the country, ignoring the great development strides the government had recorded.
Mr Oseni said Mr Tinubu was laying “the foundation of a new Nigeria, a truly recalibrated federation founded on a competitive economy, efficient governance structure, and functional infrastructure.”
