President Bola Tinubu has appointed Governor Uba Sani as the Renewed Hope ambassador and the deputy director-general for party outreach, engagement and mobilisation.

The appointment is effective immediately, according to a statement by presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga on Tuesday.

Mr Tinubu, as leader of the All Progressives Congress, appointed the Kaduna governor in recognition of his leadership and organisational abilities.

The statement said Mr Sani would work closely with the director-general of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors and the party hierarchy. He would also coordinate with the APC national chairman to ensure harmony, inclusiveness and strategic alignment across mobilisation structures.

The president expected the appointee to galvanise, promote and disseminate the party’s programmes, policies, milestones and achievements nationwide.

According to the statement, the goal was to strengthen public confidence and reinforce the Renewed Hope message nationwide.

In the letter conveying the appointment, Mr Tinubu said the overall objective was to ensure broad national acceptance ahead of the 2027 elections.

“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,” he said.
