2027: Why Tinubu deserves southeast, Nigerians’ votes – Group

The South East Renewed Hope Agenda (SERHA) has reaffirmed its total support for President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The group cited Tinubu’s administration’s inclusive governance, developmental strides, and people-oriented policies as reasons Nigerians, particularly those in the Southeast, should renew his mandate.

The group’s position was made known during the distribution of Christmas food items to residents of Ebonyi State, an event organized by SERHA to spread goodwill during the festive season.

Speaking at the event, the National Coordinator of the South East Renewed Hope Agenda, Belusochukwu Enwere, described the exercise as a practical demonstration of compassion and the true spirit of Christmas. 

He said the initiative aligned with President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, which is focused on inclusiveness, welfare, and restoring hope to Nigerians at the grassroots.

According to Enwere, Ebonyi State and the entire Southeast have benefited significantly from the Tinubu administration.

He stressed that the President has consistently shown concern for the wellbeing of the people through empowerment programmes, infrastructure development, and social interventions.

“Last Christmas, we had a similar distribution. Six months ago, there was empowerment for our people, and today again, we are here to ensure that families have something to eat this festive period,” he said.

He noted that the President remains committed to seeing Nigerians flourish.

Also speaking, the Deputy National Coordinator of SERHA, Chukwudi Anyanwu Ocha, said the Renewed Hope Agenda has repositioned the Southeast from the margins to the center of national development. 

He pointed to the establishment of the Southeast Development Commission and its investment-driven company, describing it as a landmark achievement.

Ocha further highlighted ongoing and revived infrastructure projects such as the Eastern Rail Line, key federal appointments held by Southeast indigenes, and the student loan scheme, which he said has given thousands of young Nigerians access to education without financial stress.

“As ambassadors of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, it is our responsibility to take these achievements to the grassroots,” he said, urging members to actively campaign and mobilize support for the President ahead of 2027.

He emphasised that the only way to reciprocate the President’s goodwill and developmental efforts is to work tirelessly to ensure his return for a second term.

The event ended with goodwill messages, as SERHA leaders wished Nigerians a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year, while reaffirming their commitment to a stronger Southeast and a more prosperous Nigeria under President Tinubu’s leadership.
