Ahead of the 2027 elections, the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State has unveiled Major Jack as the party's deputy governor candidate, according to the party’s Publicity Secretary, Ikenga Chibike. Jack will serve as the running mate to the party's governorship candidate, Kingsley Ogundu Chinda. Chinda won the party's gubernatorial primary in May 2026.
The selection of Jack is part of the party's efforts to achieve geographical balance on the ticket and bolster grassroots support, especially in the riverine areas of Rivers State. In December 2025, Jack defected to the APC, joining Speaker of the House Martin Amaewhule and several other lawmakers in making the switch.
