President Bola Tinubu has nominated Kaduna Governor Uba Sani as renewed hope ambassador and deputy director-general for the All Progressives Congress’s outreach, engagement, and mobilisation.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, Bayo Onanuga, special assistant to the president on media and strategy, stated that Sani’s appointment is effective immediately.

Onanuga stated that Tinubu chose Sani for the position because of his outstanding leadership and organisational skills.

“The governor’s responsibilities will include working in close collaboration with the director-general of Renewed Hope Ambassador and the party hierarchy, particularly the national chairman of the APC,” the statement reads.

“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.”

The presidential spokesman stated that the governor is also required to maintain unity, inclusivity, and strategic coordination across all levels of the party’s mobilisation and engagement architecture.

He further stated that Sani will galvanise, promote, and distribute the party’s plans and policies, including milestones and successes, to boost popular confidence and reinforce the renewed hope message across the country.
