The group described Yilwatda as a seasoned developer, visionary leader, and tested technocrat, asserting that his continued leadership is crucial for the APC's stability and electoral success. They argued that under his guidance, the party is poised to secure victory in the 2027 general elections, ensuring a win for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Stakeholder Engagement and Party Unity
Onyirimba disclosed that the Move Forward with Nentawe Advocates has initiated extensive stakeholder engagements nationwide to rally support for Yilwatda. The group has appealed directly to President Tinubu and other key party figures, urging them to back the chairman's renomination at the forthcoming convention.
The faction reaffirmed its commitment to promoting credible leadership and unity within the APC, expressing confidence that Yilwatda's emergence will consolidate the party's gains and enhance its electoral prospects.

This development underscores the internal dynamics within the ruling party as it prepares for a critical convention, with factions actively shaping the leadership landscape ahead of future political challenges.
