APC Gains Over 150,000 New Members in Bauchi State
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has reported the defection and registration of over 150,000 new members in Bauchi State, significantly altering the political dynamics as the 2027 general elections approach. Initially, more than 117,000 membership lists were presented, with ongoing registrations.
The new members are drawn from various parties, including the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), Allied Peoples Movement (APM), Social Democratic Party (SDP), African Democratic Congress (ADC), and New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP). This group includes former political office holders, approximately 20 former local government chairmen, community leaders, and grassroots supporters.
The APC aims to expand its political influence to make Bauchi competitive against the People's Democratic Party (PDP), which has maintained a strong presence under Governor Bala Mohammed. The integration of these new members into the APC's structures could enhance its electoral strength, provided they remain active and engaged within the party.
