JUST IN: Peter Mbah Emerges New PGF Chairman, Replaces Gov Uzodimma

Peter Mbah has reportedly emerged as the new Chairman of the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), taking over from Hope Uzodimma.

According to sources, the decision was reached during an extraordinary meeting of governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress held on Thursday night in Abuja.

The development came just hours after Governor Uzodimma represented APC governors at the submission of President Bola Tinubu’s presidential nomination and expression of interest forms in the Federal Capital Territory.

Reports indicate that about 20 APC governors attended the closed-door meeting, including governors from Ogun, Bayelsa and Enugu States.

Mbah’s reported emergence is being viewed as a notable political development within the ruling party, especially as consultations and strategic realignments continue ahead of future elections.

Although official confirmation was still pending as of press time, party insiders said the change was part of efforts to reposition the forum and strengthen cooperation among APC-led states.
