Tinubu Taps Kaduna Governor Uba Sani as Renewed Hope Ambassador to Spearhead APC’s 2027 Mobilisation Drive

By Tgnews Reporter

In a strategic move signaling early preparations for the 2027 general elections, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani as Renewed Hope Ambassador and Deputy Director-General for party outreach, engagement, and mobilisation within the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The appointment, which takes immediate effect, was announced in an official State House press release signed by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, on February 17, 2026.

President Tinubu, in his capacity as the national leader of the APC, cited Governor Sani’s “salient leadership and organisational abilities” as the key reasons for the selection. The role positions the Kaduna governor as a pivotal figure in strengthening the party’s nationwide presence and public support ahead of the next polls.

Governor Sani’s responsibilities will involve close collaboration with the Director-General of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors initiative, the APC national chairman, and other party leaders to foster harmony, inclusiveness, and effective coordination across all tiers of the party’s mobilisation and engagement framework.

A key focus of the appointment is to galvanise support for the APC’s programmes and policies by promoting milestones and achievements under the Renewed Hope agenda. This effort aims to boost public confidence, disseminate the party’s message more effectively, and build broad national acceptance for the APC and its candidates in the 2027 elections.

In a letter to Governor Sani conveying the appointment, President Tinubu emphasised the strategic importance of the role: “The overall objective of your appointment is to ensure that the entire citizenry is aware of, understands, and ultimately supports our party and its candidates at all levels for broad national acceptance in the 2027 election.

Preparation is critical and essential to achieving this outcome, and your leadership will be central to guiding this process effectively and strategically.”

The move has already generated buzz on social media and among political observers, with several reports highlighting it as a sign of Tinubu’s intent to consolidate APC structures early. Governor Sani, who has been praised for his governance style in Kaduna State, is now expected to leverage his experience to drive grassroots and stakeholder engagement nationwide.

This development comes as the APC positions itself for sustained dominance, with the Renewed Hope brand central to its narrative of progress and renewal under President Tinubu’s administration.

Further details on the structure of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors initiative and any related appointments are anticipated in the coming weeks.
