Fashola urges grassroots mobilisation ahead of 2027 polls

Babatunde Fashola urged APC leaders in Nigeria’s South-West to strengthen grassroots mobilisation and engage stakeholders across party lines ahead of the 2027 general elections. At a meeting in Ikeja, he proposed stakeholder forums at state, local government and ward levels across the zone’s six states. Fashola, who is working on the Presidential Campaign Council’s South-West strategy with Segun Mimiko, Segun Oni and Senator Fatai Buhari, said he would visit each state after the forums are established. He also urged party leaders to reach newly registered voters, reconnect with apathetic voters and consider the country’s North-South political rotation.
