Wale Tasir Olawale Raji, has expressed gratitude to leaders and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for their support during the collection, completion, and submission of his Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) nomination forms ahead of the 2027 general election.
Epe Insights reports that the federal lawmaker described the successful submission of his nomination forms as a major step in his journey toward seeking another mandate to represent Epe Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives.
In a statement addressed to party leaders, members, and supporters, Rep. Raji said the process reflected the unity and commitment of the APC family across the constituency. He noted that the support received reaffirmed the party’s strength and shared vision for the future.
The lawmaker expressed gratitude to Almighty Allah for His guidance throughout the process. He also appreciated APC leaders, elders, stakeholders, women, youths, and party faithful at both the constituency and national levels for standing firmly behind him.
According to Rep. Raji, the overwhelming turnout of supporters despite the short notice demonstrated the strong relationship that exists within the APC in Epe Federal Constituency. He described the gesture as a source of encouragement and motivation.
The federal legislator also addressed concerns raised by supporters who could not sign his INEC nomination forms because of the limited number of spaces provided for nominators. He assured them that the restriction did not reduce the importance of their support.

The chairman of the House Committee on Livestock Development urged all party members to embrace reconciliation and unity following the conclusion of the primary election. He maintained that the APC would achieve greater success when members work together with a common purpose.
Rep. Raji said the primary election should not be viewed as a contest that produced winners and losers. Instead, he described it as the beginning of another phase of collective responsibility aimed at strengthening the party ahead of the 2027 general election.
He noted that the submission of the INEC nomination forms has effectively put every uncertainty surrounding the primary process behind the party. He therefore encouraged members to focus on building a stronger political structure capable of delivering victory at the polls.
The lawmaker reaffirmed his commitment to serving the people of Epe Federal Constituency with dedication and integrity. He pledged to continue engaging stakeholders, community leaders, and residents in pursuit of meaningful development.
