The Minister of Innovation, Science, and Technology, Uche Nnaji, has charged stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Enugu State to give President Bola Tinubu winning votes during the 2027 general election.

Nnaji, who gave the charge during a meeting of the party’s stakeholders he convened at his country home over the weekend, noted that moles have been chased away from the party.

The minister stressed the need for grassroots involvement, saying he was now happy that the party was growing from strength to strength.

He insisted that what was announced as the votes of the APC members from the state to Tinubu during the last general elections was not actually the real votes they gave to the president.

He therefore urged the stakeholders, drawn from all the wards in the state, to mobilize the grassroots to win votes for the president in the next election.

Nnaji described Tinubu as a focused president who does not discriminate against any section of the country.

The minister used the opportunity to fault the size of the current budget presented to the House of Assembly by Governor Peter Mbah, saying Enugu does not have the oil like some states to finance such a budget.

“In the next election, we should give President Tinubu the winning votes and make sure that we are in the Lion Building. The event is going to be yearly, and the next one will be better.

“We need change in Enugu State, and that change will come. We want to provide leadership,” he stated.
