APC Campaign Council Limits Spokespersons for 2027 Elections

The All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council has announced a new communication strategy ahead of the 2027 presidential election, restricting public statements to three officials. The designated spokespersons are Senator Abdulaziz Yari, who serves as the Director-General; Dele Alake, the official spokesperson and Minister of Solid Minerals; and Mohammed Idris, the Minister of Information and National Orientation.

This directive was issued by Femi Gbajabiamila, the Chief of Staff to the President and Deputy Director-General (Administration) of the APC Presidential Campaign Council. Gbajabiamila emphasized the need for coordinated and effective communication, stating that all previously announced spokespersons will now operate within the Directorate of Media and Strategic Communications rather than independently.

The council has also instructed media organizations to comply with these changes when seeking comments or arranging appearances involving its representatives, ensuring that all communications reflect the council's approved positions.
