  "summary": "Seyi Makinde, the presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), has promised a four-year transitional Government of National Unity if elected president in 2027. According to the Daily Post Nigeria, Makinde made this pledge at a North-East town hall meeting in Yola, where he stated that his administration would transfer power to the North after four years.\n\nMakinde, who is also the current governor of Oyo State, emphasized that his government would be sincere in finding solutions to Nigeria's problems and would listen to the people for input. The party's national leader, Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed, praised Makinde as one of Nigeria's best brains and expressed confidence that the North East would vote massively for him.\n\nMakinde also challenged the federal government to publish its petroleum pricing template, as reported by Premium Times. This would enable Nigerians to understand how the prices of petroleum products are determined.",
