He said, “This convention must stand as more than a gathering. It must be a reaffirmation of mission. The APC was not built mainly to win elections, but to shape history, provide direction, and build a stronger, fairer, and more prosperous nation.” Advertisement googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display("div-gpt-ad-1672587060870-0"); }); Commending President Tinubu’s leadership, the governor said the administration had demonstrated courage and clarity in implementing difficult but necessary reforms. “In moments that demanded courage, he has chosen courage. In times that required clarity, he has provided direction. Today, the foundation for a more stable economy is being firmly laid, with brighter prospects for long-term growth and development,” he said. Uzodimma added that true leadership required not just managing present challenges but preparing for the future, noting that the President had shown statesmanship in navigating the country through critical reforms. He, however, stressed that reforms must translate into tangible benefits for Nigerians, assuring that governors elected on the APC platform remained committed to the Renewed Hope Agenda of the federal government. According to him, the Progressive Governors Forum would continue to partner with the federal government to promote economic opportunities, strengthen social protection, expand infrastructure, improve security, and empower youths and women across the states.

He reaffirmed the party’s commitment to progressive ideals such as justice, inclusion, accountability, and national renewal, adding that the convention should send a clear message that the APC remained strong, cohesive, and forward-looking. Uzodimma congratulated members and leaders of the party on its growth and unity, expressing optimism that the convention would strengthen internal cohesion and open a new chapter in the APC’s journey.
