A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Joe Igbokwe, has urged Northern Nigerians to support Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general elections.

Igbokwe suggested that such support could pave the way for a power shift back to the North in 2031, describing it as a strategic political arrangement that promotes balance.

He emphasized the importance of unity and cooperation among different regions, noting that Nigeria’s political stability depends on mutual understanding and respect.

According to him, backing Tinubu’s administration would allow ongoing policies and development plans to be sustained and fully implemented.

His remarks have sparked discussions across political circles, with differing opinions on zoning, power rotation, and long-term political strategies.

The statement reflects ongoing conversations about Nigeria’s political future as parties and stakeholders begin early positioning ahead of upcoming elections.
