Shettima Presents APC Vice-Presidential Nomination Confirmation To Tinubu

Vice President Kashim Shettima has formally presented President Bola Ahmed Tinubu with the official confirmation of his submission to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as the All Progressives Congress (APC) vice-presidential candidate for the 2027 general election.

The presentation marks another procedural milestone in the APC's preparations for the 2027 polls, following the submission of the party's presidential and vice-presidential nomination particulars to the electoral commission in accordance with the Electoral Act and INEC guidelines.

Shettima's presentation of the confirmation document symbolises the formal completion of his nomination process and reaffirms his place on the APC presidential ticket alongside President Tinubu.

The APC has retained the Tinubu-Shettima ticket for the 2027 presidential election as the ruling party seeks a fresh mandate from Nigerian voters.

The submission comes as political parties continue to conclude candidate nomination processes ahead of the electoral timetable released by INEC, with campaigns expected to intensify in the coming months.

The APC has maintained that it is focused on consolidating its achievements in government, while opposition parties continue to position themselves for what is expected to be a fiercely contested presidential election.

Political analysts say the completion of nomination formalities by major political parties signals the transition from internal party processes to broader campaign activities ahead of the 2027 general election.
