In a bid to strengthen their support ahead of the 2027 elections, the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State has mobilized backing for President Bola Tinubu and Sharafadeen Alli, a party chieftain, reports Punch Newspapers. The rally took place in Ogbomo, Oyo State, and was marked by the distribution of equipment to attendees.
The move by the APC, Nigeria’s ruling party, is significant as Tinubu, a former Lagos State governor, is seeking re-election and Alli is vying for a key position within the party.
According to Punch Newspapers, the rally attracted a large crowd, underscoring the party’s continued popularity in the region. While the specific positions Alli is aiming for have not been disclosed, his involvement in the rally underscores his commitment to supporting Tinubu’s re-election bid.
It remains unclear what type of equipment was distributed during the rally and whether the APC plans to hold similar events in other regions. The party has not yet responded to requests for comment on the matter.
