The All Progressives Congress has begun early groundwork for the 2027 general election, with the party's campaign council reportedly drawing up a schedule of states where President Bola Tinubu could make personal appearances at rallies. As the incumbent and the APC's presumed standard-bearer, Tinubu's participation in campaign stops is typically seen as a major boost for state chapters and gubernatorial or National Assembly candidates, making the selection of states a closely watched signal of the party's political priorities and strategy ahead of the polls.
The coverage agrees that a list of roughly 12 states — including Lagos, Rivers, Kaduna and Oyo — has emerged as locations Tinubu may visit, and that the president had earlier, at the inauguration of the campaign council, indicated he would not be campaigning in every state himself. What remains unclear from the reports is the full rationale behind the state selections, the exact timeline for the rallies, and whether the list is final or subject to change as the party firms up its 2027 campaign structure.
