APC Rift Deepens as Faction Opposes Tinubu’s 2027 Bid, Demands South-East Zoning

Fresh divisions have emerged in the APC as some members reject President Tinubu’s potential 2027 re-election bid. They insist the party must zone its ticket to the South-East to ensure fairness and national unity. A coalition of party leaders and youth representatives argues that the South-East region has long been marginalized. They say a power shift is overdue and would give the region its first shot at the presidency under the APC banner. Tinubu and his loyalists reportedly resist stepping aside. Internal sources warn the dispute is fueling quiet lobbying and could weaken the party ahead of the next election. Analysts urge early reconciliation to prevent a deeper crisis.
