APC Boosts 2027 War Chest With Over N4.45bn from Sale of Forms as Opposition Fragments

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has demonstrated its formidable financial strength and organizational capacity by amassing over N4.45 billion through the sale of nomination and expression of interest forms for the upcoming 2027 general elections. This substantial war chest provides a significant advantage as opposition parties continue to grapple with internal divisions. The party's robust fundraising, from presidential aspirants down to National and State Assembly candidates, underscores its preparedness and solidifies its financial footing ahead of the electoral contest. Amidst these financial maneuvers, the APC has also showcased its internal cohesion. Reports of a split within the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF) were effectively countered as 18 APC governors publicly declared their confidence in the leadership of Governor Hope Uzodinma. This decisive show of support quashes speculation of disunity and reaffirms the forum's solidarity. The APC's ability to consolidate both its financial resources and its internal political unity positions it strongly as the 2027 elections approach, presenting a united front against a fragmented opposition.

We don’t have any problem to justify what they have said. So, I want to seek this opportunity to move a vote of confidence on our chairman and his Deputy.
