Bola Tinubu has declared his readiness to renew a pact with Nigerians as he inaugurated the campaign council for his 2027 presidential bid. The All Progressives Congress (APC) leader emphasized that governance must continue side-by-side with the electioneering effort. During the inauguration held in Abuja, Tinubu stressed that the council would lead the party's mobilisation across all states and local government areas, while he would focus on direct communication with Nigerians to address their pressing needs.
Vice President Kashim Shettima, speaking at the event, criticized former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and NDC presidential candidate Peter Obi, questioning their economic interventions and readiness to lead Nigeria. Appealing to APC governors and federal lawmakers, Tinubu urged them not to claim victory if they failed to deliver their respective states and urged them to focus on the party's achievements and future plans.
