As the 2027 general elections approach, political parties are gearing up for the contest, with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) seeking to retain the presidency and strengthen its hold across the country.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has opened the 2027 electioneering season, paving the way for political parties to roll out their manifestoes, campaign programmes and promises to the electorate.

Against this backdrop, the APC on Saturday unveiled its Presidential Campaign Council for the 2027 election, with 14 serving governors assigned various portfolios and responsibilities aimed at mobilising support and delivering President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the party’s presidential candidate, for a second term.
