THE All Progressives Congress (APC) has announced that it will not issue an automatic presidential ticket for President Bola Tinubu for the 2027 elections, even though he remains the party’s endorsed candidate.
National Organising Secretary Suleiman Argungu revealed this while speaking at the party’s national secretariat.
According to Daily Sun, other members are free to purchase the nomination form and contest in the party’s primaries.
He added that while the NWC, state governors, and all six geopolitical zones have expressed support for Tinubu, the door remains open for anyone wishing to vie for the presidency on the APC platform.
Argungu said the party will release its timetable in due course, allowing aspirants to formally submit their forms.
“It will be the wish of the party, and we, the NWC of the party, have already endorsed President Tinubu as the next presidential candidate of the party. And by extension, other organs have equally done the same thing.
“Governors in the states have done the same too. It has also been replicated in all six geographical zones of the country. But it does not mean that the door is closed.
“It also means that when the time comes, we will make our timetable known so that for anybody who wants to aspire for the president of this country, either in the platform of the APC, will not be denied the opportunity to purchase the nomination forms,” he said.
