As political activities gather momentum ahead of the January 16, 2027, general election, several political parties have concluded their presidential primaries or unveiled candidates for the race.
Of the 22 political parties registered with INEC, at least 10 have declared their presidential candidates as of May 31.
The list so far reveals a fragmented opposition with an incumbent seeking re-election.
Factions, particularly in the Peoples Democratic Party, African Democratic Congress and Social Democratic Party, highlight deep divisions that could influence the outcome of the race.
