Senator Ahmed Wadada Aliyu has urged Nigerians to give President Bola Ahmed Tinubu a second term, saying the President deserves another opportunity to deliver on his mandate regardless of public perception of his performance.

The lawmaker representing Nasarawa West Senatorial District and APC governorship candidate in Nasarawa State made the call on Tuesday at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

He spoke during an event organised by the Federal Ministry of Special Duties and Intergovernmental Affairs for the presentation of its Annual Status Report and the launch of a compendium highlighting the ministry’s achievements and key initiatives.

Commending the minister and staff of the ministry for articulating the Renewed Hope Agenda under President Tinubu’s leadership, Senator Wadada said the President took deliberate and bold steps in Nigeria’s history that his predecessors could not contemplate.

“Honourable Minister, we are proud of you for initiating, conceptualizing, and bringing this to reality so that people can know,” he said.

Senator Wadada appealed directly to Nigerians on the 2027 election.

“Therefore, my call to all Nigerians is this: those who see President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as a student who has passed his exams, let us elevate him and support him to succeed in a second term. And to those who see or perceive his administration as a failure, it is natural in life to pass or fail. So if you are of the view that his administration is a failure, it is time to give him the chance to repeat for the next four years so that he can succeed at the next level,” he said.
