Leaders of the All Progressives Congress APC have intensified mobilization efforts ahead of the party national convention, with prominent figures Yilwatda and Masari pledging a transparent and credible exercise. The All Progressives Congress APC is Nigeria ruling political party currently controlling the presidency and majority of state governments.
Party insiders say consultations are ongoing across geopolitical zones to ensure broad representation and internal cohesion. The convention is expected to shape party leadership structure and influence preparations for the 2027 general elections.
Yilwatda and Masari reportedly emphasized unity and discipline, urging members to prioritize party stability over factional interests. Political observers note that conventions often serve as platforms for strategic alignment ahead of national polls.
The pledge for credibility appears aimed at reassuring stakeholders amid growing scrutiny of internal party democracy across Nigeria political landscape. Analysts argue that transparent delegate selection and consensus building will be crucial in avoiding post convention disputes.
The APC continues to consolidate support in several regions while opposition parties reorganize ahead of the next electoral cycle. Party officials maintain that lessons from previous elections have informed preparations for a smoother convention process.
Political analysts say early mobilization indicates that the 2027 race has effectively begun, even though formal campaigns remain months away. Internal party processes are widely viewed as foundational to broader electoral performance.
As consultations continue, attention will focus on whether the party can maintain unity while accommodating competing ambitions within its ranks.
