The National APC Christian Leaders Forum of Nigeria (NACLFON) heartily congratulates the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on his re-election victory and renewed mandate to continue steering the affairs of the nation toward greater development, unity, peace, and economic transformation at the APC Primaries.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) scheduled its presidential primary for Saturday, May 23, 2026 and the Committee was Chaired by former Senate President Anyim Pius Anyim.
NACLFON commends Nigerian APC for their participation in the democratic process and describes the re-election of President Tinubu as a demonstration of the confidence reposed in his leadership by millions of Nigerians who believe in his Renewed Hope Agenda and commitment to national progress.
In a statement issued by the leadership of NACLFON, the Forum commended Nigerians for their peaceful participation in the democratic process and urged all political stakeholders to place national interest above personal or partisan considerations for the advancement of the country.
The Forum noted that despite prevailing economic and security challenges confronting the nation, President Tinubu has continued to demonstrate courage, resilience, and determination in implementing reforms aimed at stabilizing the economy, strengthening democratic institutions, improving infrastructure, and repositioning Nigeria for global competitiveness.
NACLFON particularly applauded the administration’s commitment to religious tolerance, national integration, youth empowerment, educational reforms, agricultural development, and efforts at restoring investor confidence in the Nigerian economy.
The Forum further urged the President to intensify efforts toward tackling insecurity, unemployment, inflation, poverty, kidnapping, banditry, and other socio-economic challenges affecting ordinary Nigerians across the federation.
According to the statement, Nigeria stands at a critical point in history where visionary leadership, unity, and collective sacrifice are needed to move the nation forward. The Forum therefore called on Nigerians irrespective of religion, ethnicity, or political affiliation to support the President in building a stronger and more prosperous nation.
NACLFON also charged government officials at all levels to embrace transparency, accountability, justice, fairness, and service to humanity in line with biblical principles and democratic ideals.
The Forum emphasized that leadership is ordained by God and should be exercised with humility, wisdom, compassion, and fear of God, citing Romans 13:1 which states, “For there is no authority except that which God has established.”
The Christian leaders further prayed for divine wisdom, strength, protection, and good health for President Tinubu as he begins another tenure of leadership over Africa’s most populous nation.
“We pray that Almighty God will grant President Bola Ahmed Tinubu the wisdom of Solomon, the courage of David, and the compassion required to lead Nigeria into peace, stability, prosperity, and national rebirth,” the statement added.
The Forum urges the administration to continue to prioritize policies that address inflation, youth unemployment, and security, while fostering dialogue among Nigeria’s diverse religious and ethnic communities.
NACLFON recognizes the trust placed in President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope agenda and the mandate to continue steering the nation through its current economic and security challenges. As a forum representing Christian leaders within the All Progressives Congress across Nigeria’s 36 states and the FCT, we reaffirm our commitment to working with the administration to promote unity, religious tolerance, and inclusive governance.
NACLFON stands ready to provide counsel, grassroots insight, and mobilization support to advance national stability and development. NACLFON wishes President Tinubu wisdom, strength, and divine guidance as he continues to serve the nation. NACLFON reaffirmed its commitment to supporting policies and programmes that promote national unity, peaceful coexistence, economic growth, justice, equity, and sustainable development for all Nigerians.
