Nigerian President Bola Tinubu has outlined his 2027-2031 manifesto in his APC Presidential Election Manifesto, titled "From Reform to Prosperity Agenda 2027-2031." The document includes plans to strengthen Nigeria's security, boost economic growth, and improve healthcare and education. Tinubu aims to recruit 28,000 additional military personnel and 50,000 police officers to enhance the country's security architecture and combat terrorism, banditry, and kidnapping.

To achieve six percent annual economic growth, Tinubu plans to construct 200,000 affordable homes and maintain a downward trend in inflation and food prices by 2031. The healthcare component of the manifesto includes increasing functional primary healthcare centers to 90 percent nationwide and expanding active health insurance coverage to 40 percent of Nigerians.
