President Bola Tinubu on Tuesday obtained the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential nomination forms to seek re-election in 2027.
Tinubu became the first aspirant to do so as the ruling party commenced the sale of expression of interest and nomination forms for the 2027 presidential election.
He was represented by the member of the Federal House of Representatives for Ikeja Federal Constituency, Hon. James Faleke.
He paid the stipulated sum of N100 million to secure the form within hours of the exercise opening.
The form was formally presented to Faleke by the party’s national organising secretary, Sulaiman Argungu, at the APC national secretariat.
The APC had set the nomination form fee for presidential aspirants at N100 million, a figure that drew scrutiny from civil society groups even before sales commenced.
No other aspirant had collected a form as of the time of this report.
