President Bola Tinubu will on Sunday receive the Certificate of Return and party flag of the All Progressives Congress as its presidential candidate for the 2027 general election.
This follows the conclusion of the party’s direct primary exercise conducted across all 8,809 wards nationwide on Saturday.
A statement signed and released on Saturday by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, said the Presidential Primary Elections Committee will present the certificate and flag at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre in Abuja after the nationwide collation of primary election results, which currently show him in the lead against his sole opponent, Stanley Osifo.
Onanuga said APC governors, members of the National Executive Committee, the National Working Committee, and the National Assembly, as well as party stalwarts, are expected at the event.
