The 2027 presidential and National Assembly elections are fast approaching, with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) having published the credentials of the 19 presidential candidates and their running mates. As the campaign window draws near, the leading political parties — the All Progressives Congress (APC), African Democratic Congress (ADC), the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) — are intensifying their preparations to mobilise voters and establish their campaign structures nationwide.
President Bola Tinubu, seeking re-election on the APC platform with Vice President Kashim Shettima, is focused on consolidating his party's existing structures and securing the re-election of the Tinubu-Shettima mandate. Meanwhile, the APC has activated its grassroots mobilisation machinery through the activation of state coordinators for the Tinubu/Shettima Grassroots Canvassers.
