2027: Allow me complete South-West's remaining four years - Makinde

The Allied Peoples Movement, APM, presidential candidate, Seyi Makinde, on Thursday urged Nigerians to allow him to complete the remaining four years of the South-West in the Presidency.

President Bola Tinubu is about to complete his first tenure as Nigeria's president.

Tinubu, who hails from Lagos State in the South-West, is seeking re-election in 2027.

However, Makinde said Nigerians will decide if the South-West should complete its eight-year term in 2027.

Speaking during the APM's town hall meeting in Akure, Ondo State, Makinde said: "The rest of Nigeria will choose between if the South-West should complete its eight years. And if the answer is yes, allow Seyi to complete the remaining four years through a transitional government of national unity."

The Oyo State governor also urged APM members to embark on a door-to-door campaign.

Makinde assured that Nigerians will receive them because they are hungry.

He added: "What I want from the South-West, go door-to-door, go to every area, and it's not an issue that somebody did billboards or they did posters. Take your fliers and go door-to-door, you will be well received because everybody is hungry.

"Nigerians want a reset, so go and meet them, they will receive you, convert them and explain the Reset Agenda to them."
