The All Progressives Congress (APC) secured four of the five legislative by‑elections held across Nigeria, prompting President Bola Tinubu and APC Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda to publicly hail the party’s performance.
The by‑elections were conducted to fill vacant seats in the National Assembly and state houses of assembly, though the specific constituencies and dates were not disclosed in the source.
President Tinubu described the outcome as a “clear sign of continued public confidence in the APC’s agenda,” while Chairman Yilwatda called the result “a strong endorsement of our party’s vision for the nation.”
The wins add to the APC’s existing legislative presence, reinforcing its status as the ruling party since its 2015 electoral victory.
Political analysts note that by‑election results often serve as a barometer of voter sentiment and can shape party strategies ahead of upcoming national elections.
