In a move that signals growing support for the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), Oyo State Governor, Engineer Seyi Makinde, has declared his confidence in the party’s chances of winning the 2027 general elections. The governor made this assertion while welcoming thousands of defectors from the All Progressives Congress (APC) into APM. According to multiple reports, these defections indicate a growing trend towards the APM, boosting its prospects for success in the upcoming polls.
Ambassador Olufemi Ajadi Oguntoyinbo, the APM candidate for Oyo Central Senatorial District, also hailed the rally as evidence that the party’s campaign momentum is on the rise. The governor and the senatorial candidate shared their optimism in separate statements reported by Tribune Online and THISDAYLIVE.
While the exact number of APC defectors joining APM remains unconfirmed, both sources agree that this shift represents a significant development in the political landscape leading up to the 2027 elections. It is worth noting that neither the NNPC nor the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has commented on the operating status of the Allied Peoples Movement or the timing of the general elections.
The potential impact of these developments on the political landscape and Nigerian voters will become clearer as more details emerge about the 2027 election cycle.
