The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Zamfara State has officially endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for a second term in the 2027 general elections. The decision follows a series of stakeholders’ meetings held after Minister of State for Defence Bello Matawalle visited the state for three days.
According to Yusuf Idris, the APC Publicity Secretary in Zamfara, the party’s leadership—headed by Chairman Tukur Danfulani—resolved to back President Tinubu because of his administration’s achievements in economic reforms and national security. Idris disclosed this information while briefing journalists in Gusau on Saturday.
The endorsement was formalized in a letter addressed to President Tinubu through Matawalle, signed by the APC chairman and secretary. The letter resulted from stakeholders’ meetings held on 1 November in Talata‑Mafara and on 14 November at the party secretariat in Gusau, under the guidance of former governor and influential party leader Senator Abdulaziz Yari.
Idris added that APC stakeholders from all 14 local government areas validated the endorsement through individually signed letters submitted to the State Executive Committee. This collective affirmation has bolstered the party’s confidence in securing a decisive victory across the North‑West in the 2027 elections.
The APC’s early endorsement of President Tinubu highlights the party’s strategic approach to the upcoming polls. As Nigeria’s political landscape continues to evolve, the move is seen as a significant step toward consolidating support for the incumbent president. With the country preparing for the 2027 general elections, parties are intensifying efforts to mobilize support and strengthen their positions. The APC’s endorsement in Zamfara underscores its commitment to Tinubu’s re‑election bid, and the outcome will be closely watched in the coming months.
