2027: Ex-Kwara SDP gov candidate backs AbdulRazaq

Former Kwara State governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party in the 2023 election, Hakeem Lawal, has reaffirmed his loyalty to the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the 2027 general elections. Lawal, who previously contested the election on the SDP platform, stated that he belongs to the APC and urged aggrieved members of the party who had left to return, emphasizing that political opportunities would come to members at the right time.

He also dismissed reports of disagreement between the APC governorship candidate and his running mate as propaganda and social media speculation, emphasizing the importance of unity within the party as it approaches the end of its tenure.
