ABUJA — The Young Progressives Party, YPP, has elected Mrs Anita Zugwai-Chukwu as its presidential candidate for the 2027 general election and launched Agenda 469, a political initiative aimed at securing a strong presence in the National Assembly ahead of the polls.

The convention marked the party’s formal entry into the 2027 presidential race, with the YPP unveiling its candidate and setting out its vision for the elections amid growing public concern over economic hardship, insecurity, unemployment and governance challenges.
