The APC as a Pillar of National Stability

Addressing the current socio-political landscape in Abuja, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda asserted that the All Progressives Congress (APC) stands alone as a genuinely national and electorally sustainable entity. He argued that at a time of significant national transition, the country cannot afford the instability offered by politically misguided alternatives. Yilwatda, who was re-elected as National Chairman at the party’s March 2026 convention, emphasized that the APC possesses the administrative capability and political discipline required to manage a nation as diverse as Nigeria.

Contrast with Opposition Leadership Deficiencies

Yilwatda did not hold back in his critique of rival political parties, pointing to ongoing internal implosions and factional disputes as evidence of their unpreparedness for national leadership. He remarked that any organization unable to govern its own members and reconcile internal viewpoints is fundamentally unfit to govern a complex federation. The National Chairman categorized the current legal disputes and ego-driven conflicts within the opposition as alarming indicators of structural ineptitude, warning Nigerians against entrusting the nation's future to such entities.

Strategic Directives for the Osun Campaign

Turning his attention to regional political operations, particularly in Osun State, the National Chairman advocated for a rigorous, non-ceremonial approach to campaigning. He instructed that the Osun initiative must be ward-focused and informed by actual voter behavior rather than general propaganda. Key to this strategy is a "singular command structure" designed to eliminate overlapping responsibilities and the type of internal disruptions that have historically undermined electoral success.
