Governor Makinde on APM’s Advantage for 2027 Elections: The PDP Structure is with Us

In an interview on Arise Television’s Morning Show on Friday, Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, who is the 2027 presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), expressed confidence in the political structure of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) being present within APM. According to Daily Post Nigeria, Makinde made the disclosure during the programme. The governor, who has been a stalwart of the PDP before his departure to form APM, stated that the political structure of the PDP is now within APM, providing a strong foundation for their campaign in the upcoming elections. This claim, however, has not been independently confirmed by other sources.

Makinde’s assertion indicates a strategic move to leverage the PDP’s political structure, which has produced several high-profile political figures in the past. The governor’s confidence in this alliance could potentially impact the political landscape in the coming years, particularly as the 2027 elections approach.
