APC Targets Three Million Votes for Tinubu and Hamzat
The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has set a target of nearly three million votes for President Bola Tinubu and the party’s 2027 governorship candidate, Dr Kadri Obafemi Hamzat. Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, Director-General of the PBAT-KOH Campaign Council, disclosed this at a press conference in Ikeja, Lagos.
The APC aims to avoid a repeat of its defeat in the 2023 presidential election, where Labour Party candidate Peter Obi secured 582,454 votes against Tinubu's 572,606 votes. Obanikoro described the outcome as a wake-up call, stating that the APC has strengthened its membership base and mobilization efforts.
The party has registered about one million members in Lagos and expects a significant turnout. The campaign council plans to unveil Hamzat's manifesto on October 30, focusing on development and inclusivity.
Obanikoro emphasized the importance of continuity in governance while addressing residents' challenges.
