The presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), Governor Seyi Makinde, has pledged to reset Nigeria’s political and economic trajectory through a single, transitional four-year term. Speaking on Saturday at an APM North-East town hall meeting in Yola, Adamawa State, the Oyo State Governor announced that his administration would focus on national unity before returning presidential power to the North. “I want to assure you that the government we will put in place from May 2027 will be a transitional government of national unity,” Makinde declared. “It will not last beyond four years.” The town hall meeting brought together APM leaders, stakeholders, and candidates from all six states across the North-East region. Makinde emphasized that absolute sincerity and active listening would be the cornerstones of his administration. “My promise to you is we will be sincere in finding solutions to our problems. We will listen to you because solutions can come from anywhere,” the APM presidential flagbearer added. Endorsing his candidacy, the APM National Leader and Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, described Makinde as one of Nigeria’s finest minds. He assured the candidate of the region`s massive support at the polls. “We in the North East have the numbers to influence who becomes president of Nigeria. The North East will vote massively for you,” Governor Mohammed stated. Corroborating this commitment, the APM governorship candidate in Adamawa State, Abdulrahman Haske, affirmed that gubernatorial candidates across the six North-East states are fully mobilized to secure a resounding victory for Makinde and all APM candidates in the upcoming general elections.
