The Director-General of the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council, APC-PCC, Abdulaziz Yari has expressed optimism that President Bola Tinubu will be re-elected in 2027.

Yari said the same God who gave Tinubu victory in the 2023 presidential election will do it again in 2027.

Speaking with newsmen in Mecca, Saudi Arabia where he joined President Tinubu and other Nigerians to perform Umrah, the lesser Hajj, Yari said Tinubu's trust in God and his achievements will give him victory in January 2027.

He spoke shortly after President Tinubu, during a media chat in Saudi Arabia on Friday, said he trusts God for his second term in office.

Yari also praised Tinubu for praying for Nigeria and its citizens, describing it as a mark of true leadership.

"That's what makes a leader. He first prayed for the country, prayed for every Nigerian, and noted that God selects leaders.

"God did it in 2023, He will do it again. Tinubu depends on Allah to do it for him as He did in 2023," Yari stated.
