Accord Party's Gombe Coordinator Plans Alliances for 2027

Samuel Chuwang, the Gombe State Coordinator of the Accord Party, stated that the party will pursue alliances with other political parties to improve its prospects in the 2027 general elections. This strategy is particularly crucial in regions where the Accord Party will not field candidates.

Chuwang emphasized that the party would seek collaborations with platforms that present the best chances for electoral success while continuing to support its candidates for the National Assembly and state legislature. He made these comments during a telephone interview regarding the potential effects of political alignments between Accord’s national leadership and President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress.

Chuwang acknowledged that the lack of a gubernatorial candidate in Gombe necessitates these alliances to remain competitive. He expressed confidence that such arrangements would not negatively impact the party's candidates for the National Assembly and state House of Assembly, describing the alliances as a merger that could enhance the party's recognition.
