As the battle for 2027 begins to gain momentum, President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid has received a huge boost.

Sworn-in as President on 29 May 2023, Tinubu will complete his first term in May 2027.

There are indications that the President will seek re-election in 2027.

In a statement on 13 April, the President asked his supporters to stop campaigning for his re-election to avoid breaching the rules of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Tinubu attributed the All Progressives Congress (APC)’s growing support to its outstanding achievements in less than two years in office, assuring Nigerians that the country will not become a one-party state.
