The Allied People’s Movement (APM) has expressed confidence that its presidential candidate, Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, will defeat President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.
The party made the declaration on Monday after confirming
that it had submitted the nomination details of its presidential,
vice-presidential and National Assembly candidates to the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC).
Speaking on the development, the party’s National Publicity
Secretary, Abubakar Yusuf, said the submission marked an important step in the
party’s preparations for the 2027 general elections.
Yusuf said the party had submitted the details of its
presidential, vice-presidential and National Assembly candidates to INEC in
line with electoral requirements.
“The submission marks a major step in our preparations to
offer Nigerians a credible, competent and people-focused alternative in the
2027 general elections. We are also strengthening our grassroots mobilisation
across the country, and we are confident of emerging victorious at the polls,”
Yusuf said.
According to him, the APM has continued to attract more
supporters since Makinde emerged as its presidential candidate, while Bauchi
State Governor Bala Mohammed accepted the party’s senatorial ticket for Bauchi
South.
The party blamed the current administration for the
country’s economic and security challenges, saying many Nigerians were
demanding a change in leadership.
“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,” Yusuf said.
“With an APM-led administration and Makinde on the saddle,
the welfare of Nigerians will be at the centre of government policies,” he
said.
The party described Makinde as a leader with the experience
and capacity to rebuild the country, citing his performance as governor of Oyo
State.
“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,” Yusuf said.
The party maintained that the performance of the APC-led
Federal government had convinced Nigerians that a new direction was needed.
