A former North Central Coordinator of the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign, Anngu Orngu, has officially parted ways with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Orngu has declared his support for Bola Ahmed Tinubu, praising the president’s reform agenda as “bold and transformational.”
Speaking with our reporter on Thursday, the former coordinator stated that Tinubu’s economic and institutional reforms are setting Nigeria on a path to long-term prosperity that will benefit generations to come.
“President Tinubu is not paying lip service to the reformation of Nigeria.
“He is doing the hard and painful work of fixing a broken system,” he said.
He highlighted the removal of fuel subsidy as one of the boldest steps taken by the Tinubu administration, describing it as a necessary move to dismantle a system that kept the country in poverty while enriching a privileged few.
“Subsidy removal was not a popular decision, but it was the right one. It takes courage to confront decades-old structures of waste and abuse,” he added.
Orngu, also former Senior Special Assistant to the Benue State Governor on Student Affairs, noted that no governor in the country is currently borrowing to pay salaries, a sign, he argued, that Nigeria’s public finance is stabilizing under Tinubu’s leadership.
Taking a swipe at former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, he advised the PDP chieftain to “rest and stop acting like a juvenile political activist,” urging him instead to support President Tinubu’s efforts to fix the country.
“This is a time for national rebuilding, not petty politics. Those who truly care about Nigeria should rally behind Tinubu’s vision.
“I call on all Nigerian youths to stand solidly behind President Tinubu to succeed. Let us give him the overwhelming mandate he deserves in 2027 to continue the great work he has started.
“The future belongs to us, and we must support the leader who is laying the groundwork for it.”
