Kwankwaso Declares Northern Support for Tinubu in 2027
Dr Musa Illiyasu Kwankwaso, a member of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, announced that the North-West has chosen President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as its candidate for the 2027 presidential election. This declaration followed a significant turnout at the APC Presidential Campaign's formal kick-off in Kaduna, which Kwankwaso described as a clear demonstration of northern support for Tinubu.
He asserted that the rally dispelled doubts about the North's position in the presidential race and emphasized the importance of consolidating support for Tinubu to promote national progress. Kwankwaso stated that Tinubu's presidency would facilitate fair resource distribution across Nigeria's six geopolitical zones and called for unity among political stakeholders.
He dismissed claims that the North's support for Tinubu was transactional, affirming the region's commitment to honor its political obligations as the election approaches.
