Vice President Kashim Shettima on Monday urged transport operators mobilising support for President Bola Tinubu's 2027 re-election bid to keep their nationwide political activities peaceful, responsible and issue-focused. According to Vanguard, Shettima spoke at the inauguration of a support group's nationwide structure, which has set a target of 20 million votes for the Tinubu-Shettima ticket. The event took place in Abuja as early campaigning for Nigeria's next general election gathers pace.

Former members of the now-defunct All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) who are currently in Nigeria's ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) have declared support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice-President Kashim Shettima's 2027 re-election ticket. According to the Leadership report, the group, operating under the Association of Former ANPP Members, is simultaneously demanding that the APC's presidential slot be ceded to the ANPP bloc in the 2031 election cycle.

Vice-President Kashim Shettima said President Bola Tinubu's infrastructural development agenda aligns with the welfare and operations of Nigerian transporters, according to ThisDay Live. Speaking in Abuja, he disclosed that the government is working to reduce transportation costs nationwide. Shettima also inaugurated a transporters support group backing Tinubu's re-election bid, urging members to conduct a peaceful, issue-based campaign ahead of the polls.

Adamawa Governor Ahmadu Fintiri has endorsed President Bola Tinubu as the credible candidate for the APC in the 2027 presidential election, emphasizing the importance of Southern presidential equity in his reasoning.

Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, the Labour Party's vice-presidential candidate in Nigeria's 2023 election, has said that the major contenders expected to challenge President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 poll lack the capacity to move the country forward. Baba-Ahmed, who ran alongside Peter Obi in 2023, made the remarks during an appearance on the MicOn Podcast, according to Ripples Nigeria. His comments appear to dismiss Obi, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and other potential challengers ahead of the next presidential race.

Jonathan Vatsa, a member of the All Progressives Congress in Niger State and former Commissioner for Information, Culture and Tourism, has advised Governor Mohammed Umar Bago to select a Christian running mate for the 2027 governorship election. He cautioned that failing to do so could lead to a loss of support for the party, citing concerns over the marginalization of Christians.
