 South-East Ex-Governors Endorse Tinubu for 2027 Re-election, Inaugurate New Advisory Forum


Former governors from Nigeria’s South-East geopolitical zone have thrown their weight behind President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s bid for a second term in the 2027 presidential election.


The endorsement came on Tuesday after the ex-governors held a closed-door meeting at the Presidential Lodge in Enugu, where they formally launched a new platform called the **South East Forum of Former Governors**.


According to the group, the forum is intended to function as a **non-partisan advisory body** that will offer guidance and support to the region’s serving governors on critical developmental matters and broader national issues.


Minister of Works, Senator David Umahi, who is also a former governor of Ebonyi State, addressed journalists after the meeting and read the communique. He disclosed that the ex-governors reached a unanimous decision to back President Tinubu’s re-election, citing the administration’s ongoing infrastructure projects across the South-East and its policy of inclusive appointments as key factors behind their support.
