APC Allegedly Bypasses Northern Governors in 2027 Polling-Agent Selection

The APC National Working Committee has reportedly asked candidates to submit proposed polling agents directly to the party’s national secretariat, bypassing state governors and chapters. Party sources said the move is intended to prevent alleged sabotage ahead of the 2027 elections, amid concerns that some northern APC governors are not actively backing President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid. The reported tension is linked to unresolved disagreements within the Progressive Governors’ Forum, scrutiny of state allocations and local government funds, and the Presidency’s support for FCT Minister Nyesom Wike’s political coalition. The claims remain based largely on party sources and have not been independently verified.
