Lukman Warns Against Political Strife; Urges Unity for 2027 Elections

In a statement marking Nigeria's 65th Independence Anniversary, Lukman cautioned against internal power struggles within political parties, particularly the APC, which could hinder their effectiveness in the 2027 general elections. He criticized the focus on personal interests over collective goals, urging leaders like Nasir El-Rufai to discourage the "madness" of aspiring candidates.

Lukman emphasized the need for stakeholder unity and realignment to ensure the party's relevance in future electoral cycles. He expressed concerns about the leadership dynamics in Kaduna State's APC chapter potentially destabilizing the party ahead of elections.
