The Allied People’s Movement (APM) has said that its presidential candidate in the 2027 general election, Governor Seyi Makinde will win the contest.
The APM National Publicity Secretary,
Abubakar Yusuf, stated this,on Monday,in Abuja. He said this is as result of Makinde’s rising popularity and acceptability among Nigerians as a credible alternative to President Bola Tinubu.
Yusuf, who confirmed that the APM has uploaded the Oyo State governor’s details , alongside those of its other candidates for the 2027 polls, on the Independent National Electoral Commission ( INEC) portal, expressed optimism that the opposition party apart from winning the presidential poll, would also win other positions.
According to him, ” We have uploaded details of our Presidential, Vice Presidential and National Assembly candidates as required by INEC. This marks another important milestone in our journey towards offering Nigerians a credible, competent and people-oriented alternative in the 2027 general elections.
“Our confidence is rooted in our continuous engagement with Nigerians and the array of very credible candidates that we are fielding at all levels.
“The APM is proud of the quality of leaders flying its flag across the country. Our candidates are men and women of proven character, integrity and outstanding performance in their respective fields. They embody the values of accountability, service and purposeful leadership that Nigerians have consistently demanded.
“Across the country, citizens have expressed deep concerns about the rising cost of living, widespread insecurity, unemployment and declining economic opportunities. These are genuine concerns that require practical solutions and compassionate leadership which only the APM can offer.
“So, with an APM-led administration and Makinde on the saddle, the welfare of Nigerians will be at the centre of government policies.”
Yusuf, while noting that the APM’s engagement is yielding results, as there is a surge of members into the party, stated that “we have a presidential candidate who not only has the commitment but also the leadership capacity and competence to secure our nation, rebuild the economy and ensure that every Nigerian enjoys the dividends of good governance.
“So our Presidential candidate stands out as a leader whose record speaks for itself. Of course, without argument, his achievements have earned him national recognition as one of Nigeria’s most performing governors and that is why Nigerians want him as President.
“We all know that Governor Makinde has earned a reputation for prudent management of public resources and responsible governance. So, these principles will guide an APM government at the federal level.
“Beyond his impressive performance in office, Governor Makinde represents a new generation of leadership. He combines experience with relative youth, energy, vision and the capacity to unite Nigerians across political, ethnic and religious divides. We firmly believe he possesses the competence, character and courage required to reposition Nigeria and restore confidence in governance.
“In Bauchi State, Governor Bala Mohammed, our senatorial candidate, brings a wealth of experience and leadership that will further strengthen the party’s vision of effective representation and national development. Together with our other candidates, he will play a vital role in advancing the APM’s mission of delivering responsible governance.”
