APC To Begin Presidential Campaign In Kaduna On October 24, Says Yari
The ruling party says the rally will test a two-million-vote target in Kaduna as it expands Tinubu’s campaign team with opposition figures.
- On Wednesday, October 14, the All Progressives Congress inaugurated its 2027 Presidential Campaign Council at the Presidential Villa in Abuja. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu announced he would limit physical campaign appearances to prioritize national governance.
