On October 11, 2026, governors from North-Central states endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for a second term during the APC North-Central mega rally in Lafia, the capital of Nasarawa state. Governor Abdullahi Sule, who is also the chairman of the North-Central governors, affirmed that Nasarawa state would support the APC presidential candidate and all party candidates.

He expressed confidence in the party's electoral prospects and the state's commitment to the APC. Governors from Plateau, Benue, Kwara, Kogi, and Niger states also supported Tinubu's re-election, citing his administration's economic transformations.
