Bola Tinubu has appointed the Governor of Kaduna State, Uba Sani, as Renewed Hope Ambassador and Deputy Director-General for party outreach, engagement, and mobilisation.
The appointment comes shortly after the Independent National Electoral Commission released the election timetable for campaigns ahead of the 2027 general elections, scheduled to commence in November 2026.
According to a statement signed by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, the appointment took immediate effect. Tinubu, in his capacity as leader of the All Progressives Congress, cited Sani’s “salient leadership and organisational abilities” as key reasons for the selection.
As Deputy Director-General, Sani is expected to work closely with the Director-General of Renewed Hope Ambassador and the party hierarchy, including the national chairman of the APC, to ensure harmony, inclusiveness, and strategic coordination across all mobilisation efforts.
The President emphasised that the role would involve promoting the party’s programmes and policies, highlighting achievements, and reinforcing the message of Renewed Hope nationwide.
In his appointment letter, Tinubu wrote: “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.”
