North-central governors endorse Tinubu for 2027 re-election, back power rotation

Governors from Nigeria's north-central states publicly endorsed President Bola Tinubu for re-election in 2027 at a rally in Lafia, Nasarawa State, urging stakeholders to respect the power-rotation arrangement between north and south. This endorsement consolidates Tinubu's support base ahead of the 2027 election, though it remains to be seen if it translates into broader northern backing. The move signals early political alignment and could shape the ruling party's primary dynamics.
