2027 presidency: North-Central APC endorses Tinubu for second term

The North-Central All Progressives Congress (APC) Forum has endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s bid for a second term in 2027.

The announcement followed a strategic meeting in Abuja, where the Forum, led by Chairman Alhaji Saleh Zazzaga, expressed satisfaction with Tinubu’s leadership.

Highlighting achievements in infrastructure, security, and inclusive appointments, Zazzaga declared, “No administration since Nigeria’s return to democracy in 1999 has provided as many benefits to the North-Central zone as President Tinubu’s.”

The Forum’s endorsement comes amidst opposition from the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) and Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF), which have criticised Tinubu’s policies over socio-economic challenges.

Both groups have hinted at supporting a northern presidential candidate in the next election. Despite these dissenting voices, the North-Central APC Forum emphasised Tinubu’s strides in economic recovery.

“The economic policies introduced by President Tinubu are already making the expected impact,” the statement read, citing a strengthened Naira, improved oil production, and rising foreign reserves.

The Forum also acknowledged reforms in the petroleum sector, stating, “Scarcity has been eliminated, and with time, Nigerians will witness a reduction in petroleum prices, reversing inflation.”

Calling for nationwide unity, the statement continued, “President Tinubu deserves a second term to midwife these reforms which are already bearing fruit. We urge all Nigerians to support his administration.”

The Forum reassured its commitment to Tinubu’s reelection.

“Just as we worked for his election in 2023, we will again work for his reelection in 2027,” Zazzaga affirmed.

The group’s confidence in Tinubu’s leadership underscores a divided political landscape as the nation anticipates the next presidential election.

NYSC Mobilisation & Academic Standards – Raising quality or adding pressure on students?

On September 29, 2025, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu approved a reform linking the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) mobilisation process to the National Policy for the Nigeria Education Repository and Databank (NERD). By invoking Sections 2(4)(4) and 16(1)(C) of the NYSC Act, Tinubu stated that no graduate, whether from a Nigerian or foreign institution, will be mobilised for or exempted from NYSC without proof of compliance with the NERD policy. In a common man's understanding, the Federal Government has announced that Nigerian students must now submit their final-year projects or thesis before they can be mobilised for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). This policy aims to improve academic standards, ensuring that no student skips essential academic requirements before entering the NYSC scheme . On the surface, this sounds like a laudable idea, but a deeper look reveals a different reality. In many universities, students are allowed to graduate and mobilised for NYSC  ...
