The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council's Director-General, Abdul'aziz Yari, has urged Northerners to support President Bola Tinubu's re-election bid in 2027. Yari highlighted Tinubu's commitment to former President Muhammadu Buhari, who served two terms from 2015 to 2023, as a reason for the North to back Tinubu's re-election.

He stated that despite pressure from within the party to run for president in 2019, Tinubu remained loyal to Buhari. Yari believes it is now time for the North to repay Tinubu for allowing it to complete its full term. He emphasized that there is no reason for Northerners not to continue supporting Tinubu and see his term through.

Yari affirmed that Tinubu has successfully restructured the country despite inheriting a difficult situation from previous administrations.
