2027: Veteran Politician Bets on APM as New Platform for Presidential Ambition By Okwo romeon Abuja
As political realignments gather momentum ahead of the 2027 general elections, a veteran politician with deep roots in Nigeria's democratic journey has thrown his weight behind the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), expressing confidence that the party could emerge as a formidable force in the race for the nation's highest office.
Dr Ibrahim Waziri,(the sullbawa Fulani) is pollitician with many years of experience and sagacious important in Bauchi state and across the north east.
The politician, who once belonged to the historic Social Democratic Party (SDP) that produced the late Chief Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola, believes the APM offers a fresh opportunity to reshape Nigeria's political landscape.
Drawing from decades of political experience, including his involvement in some of the country's most significant democratic movements, he said his decision to align with the APM was informed by the need for a credible alternative capable of addressing Nigeria's mounting socio-economic and governance challenges.
The former presidential aspirant, who had also sought the presidential ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the past, expressed unwavering confidence in his chances of securing the APM's presidential nomination.
Beyond clinching the party's ticket, he projected optimism about the party's prospects in the 2027 election, insisting that Nigerians are increasingly searching for leadership alternatives beyond the dominant political parties.
According to him, the growing dissatisfaction among citizens over economic hardship, insecurity and governance deficits presents an opportunity for emerging political platforms to gain wider acceptance across the country.
He maintained that with the right vision, grassroots mobilisation and commitment to national unity, the APM could surprise many political observers and position itself as a serious contender in the next presidential contest.
As the countdown to 2027 begins, his declaration adds another dimension to the unfolding political permutations that are expected to shape the battle for Nigeria's presidency.
