APC REJECTS CLAIMS OF WITHDRAWING TINUBU’S 2027 CAMPAIGN COUNCIL LIST

The All Progressives Congress has dismissed reports that it withdrew the list of members of President Bola Tinubu’s 2027 Presidential Campaign Council for further review. The party said the reports were inaccurate and clarified that no decision had been taken to withdraw the recently released list.

The clarification came amid reports suggesting that the APC had pulled back the list after concerns were raised over its composition. The party, however, maintained that any adjustment to the campaign council would be communicated through the appropriate official channels.

The development follows the party’s preparations for the 2027 general elections and efforts to organise its campaign structure ahead of the presidential contest. Tinubu’s campaign council was recently constituted as the APC begins preparations to defend the presidency and mobilise support for his re-election bid.

The controversy over the list comes at a time when political activities are gradually intensifying ahead of the 2027 elections, with parties and political actors strengthening their structures across the country. The APC has continued to mobilise its members and stakeholders as it prepares for the electoral contest.

The party urged members and the public to disregard unverified reports concerning the campaign council, stressing that any changes to the structure or membership would be formally announced. The APC's clarification is expected to put to rest speculation surrounding the status of the Tinubu campaign council list.
