Bala Mohammed warns Nigerians not to underrate APM's Seyi Makinde for 2027 reset

Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed, National Leader of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), inaugurated the party's presidential campaign office in Abuja on Monday, September 5, 2026, warning Nigerians not to underrate APM's presidential candidate Seyi Makinde ahead of the 2027 elections. Mohammed declared APM has come to 'reset Nigeria' by fielding Makinde, whom he described as 'a mobilizer, a manager of resources, an engineer per excellence' who achieved significant urban renewal in Oyo State with limited resources.

Mohammed emphasized that disregarding APM would be 'at one's own peril,' highlighting Makinde's track record where 'there was abject neglect and abandonment in Oyo State, he brought urban renewal to a level that nobody has ever done it.' The campaign office, funded solely by Makinde according to Mohammed, signals the party's serious intent for the 2027 polls.

As opposition figures criticize the ruling party, APM positions Makinde—a sitting governor—as its standard-bearer, urging voters to consider his Oyo State renewal achievements when evaluating 2027 presidential contenders. Will you weigh Makinde's claimed resourceful leadership in Oyo against other candidates' profiles as Nigeria approaches the 2027 election cycle?
