The lawmaker representing Ikeja Federal Constituency, James Faleke, has obtained the All Progressives Congress Expression of Interest and Nomination forms valued at N100 million on behalf of President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
Faleke picked up the forms on Tuesday in Abuja during a brief ceremony organised by the All Progressives Congress.
Presenting the documents, the party’s National Organising Secretary, Suleiman Argungu, said the process signalled the formal commencement of Tinubu’s re-election bid.
Faleke, who is also the founder of the Tinubu Support Groups, completed the payment for the forms, thereby setting the stage for the President’s participation in the party’s primary.
Meanwhile, the Independent National Electoral Commission has fixed Saturday, January 16, 2027, for the presidential and National Assembly elections.
The commission also scheduled governorship and State Houses of Assembly elections for February 6, 2027.
