Progressives Forum marks 10 years of APC governance Jan. 27

The organising committee of the “Summit of the Progressives,” has rescheduled its programme commemorating 10 years of the All Progressives Congress (APC) governance at the national level to Jan. 27, 2026.

The Chairman, Brand and Media Committee, Bashir Ahmad, disclosed the new date in a statement made available to our correspondent on Tuesday in Abuja.

Ahmed said that the summit, hitherto fixed for December, was rescheduled to Jan. 27, 2026, in consideration of the ‘prevailing circumstances’ at the time.

The new date, according to him, will allow for a more fitting and inclusive gathering of leaders, stakeholders and members of the broader progressive family.

Our correspondent reports that the landmark national event is being organised by Progressives Forum (TPF), in conjunction with The Bola Tinubu Legacy Conference, The Progressives Rights Group (PRG) and The Buhari New Media Centre (BNMC).

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who is one of the original co-founders and leaders of the party, is expected to serve as the Special Guest of Honour, underscoring the significance of the moment in Nigeria’s democratic evolution.

“Designed as a reflective and forward-looking platform, the summit will undertake a comprehensive review of the milestones, achievements, reforms and developmental strides recorded since APC assumed national leadership in 2015.

“It will also serve as a forum to articulate a renewed progressive vision for the years ahead,” Ahmed said.

He further stated that the summit would feature keynote addresses on the evolution and impacts of progressive governance across major sectors.

Ahmed said that the highlights of the event would also include: sectoral panel discussions on economic transformation, national security, social investment, energy transition, infrastructural development, governance reforms and political renewal.

He said that fireside chats with notable leaders within Nigeria’s progressive fold, spotlighting leadership journeys, defining decisions, policy philosophies and pivotal reflections that had shaped the movement would also be part of the programme.

Others, according to him, are legacy documentary presentations capturing APC’s rise, its signature policy interventions and landmark governance moments since 2015.

“It will feature strategic future-casting sessions projecting an innovative roadmap for the next decade of progressive leadership anchored on inclusion, national renewal and sustainable development,” he said.

Ahmed added that the summit would also feature a tribute segment honouring the memory and contributions of the late President Muhammadu Buhari and other departed leaders who played foundational roles in the progressive movement.

He stated said that further details on participation, accreditation and media arrangements would be communicated in due course.
