2027 Elections: North West APC Unites Behind Tinubu – “Aso Rock Has No Vacancy”
In a bold declaration of support, the All Progressives Congress (APC) North West zone endorsed President Bola Tinubu for a second term at a high-stakes stakeholders’ meeting in Kaduna. Led by National Chairman Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje and Deputy Senate President Barau Jibrin, the zone dismissed opposition ambitions with a resounding “No Vacancy in Aso Rock!”
The Power Play: Who Attended?
The meeting brought together APC heavyweights, including:
- Governors: Uba Sani (Kaduna), Nasir Idris (Kebbi), Umar Namadi (Jigawa).
- National Leaders: Speaker Tajudeen Abbas, Ministers, and federal legislators.
- Party Executives: State chapter chairmen, heads of federal agencies, and senior appointees.
Senator Barau Jibrin set the tone by rallying the crowd:
“Aso Rock?”
“No vacancy!” roared attendees.
Barau doubled down:
*“In 2027, we will secure a landslide victory. Unity and cooperation with the President are non-negotiable.”*
Why Tinubu? APC Points to Security, Economic Gains
The endorsement hinges on Tinubu’s “visible strides” in tackling Nigeria’s crises:
- Security Wins: Improved safety on previously perilous routes like Abuja-Kaduna Highway.
- Economic Reforms: Policies addressing inherited challenges, though specifics remain debated.
- Opposition Defections: APC claims rising defections reflect Tinubu’s growing appeal.
Barau argued:
“The President inherited monumental challenges but is steadily overcoming them. Even critics acknowledge progress in the North West’s security landscape.”
Ganduje’s Gambit: Consolidating the North West
As APC’s National Chairman, Ganduje leveraged the forum to solidify the North West—a pivotal voting bloc—behind Tinubu. The region delivered critical votes in 2023, and this endorsement signals early mobilization for 2027.
Opposition Reacts: Can APC Sustain the Momentum?
While APC celebrates, analysts question:
- Will Tinubu’s reforms translate to broader public buy-in amid inflation and hardship?
- Can the North West’s endorsement deter internal party rivalries?
