President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved the constitution of the All Progressives Congress 2027 Presidential Campaign Council, as the ruling party strengthens its political structure ahead of the 2027 general elections.

As part of the new arrangement, the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Mohammed Matawalle, will serve as Deputy Director, Security and Intelligence 1. His appointment gives him a central role in coordinating the security and intelligence framework for the party’s campaign activities.

The campaign council brings together political leaders, strategists and grassroots mobilisers. Together, they will coordinate the APC’s political engagements and mobilisation efforts as the party prepares for the next general election.

Matawalle Takes Responsibility for Campaign Security

According to the Ministry of Defence, Matawalle will coordinate security arrangements for APC campaign activities across the country.

In addition, he will oversee measures designed to protect candidates, campaign officials, supporters and other participants during campaign events.

As political activities increase, security will become increasingly important. Therefore, the new structure will need to work closely with relevant security agencies to ensure that rallies, meetings and other campaign engagements take place in a safe and orderly environment.

Meanwhile, the appointment places Matawalle in a strategic position within the APC’s campaign structure. His responsibilities will cover security planning and intelligence coordination as the party moves towards a more active campaign phase.

APC Strengthens Its 2027 Campaign Structure

The approval of the campaign council signals a fresh stage in the APC’s preparations for the 2027 elections.

Furthermore, the inclusion of political leaders, strategists and grassroots mobilisers reflects the party’s focus on building a coordinated campaign network across the country.

At the same time, the council will have to manage the party’s engagements as political competition intensifies. Consequently, effective coordination will remain important as the APC seeks to mobilise supporters and communicate its political agenda to voters.

For now, Matawalle will focus on the security and intelligence responsibilities assigned to him, while the wider campaign council works to organise the party’s activities ahead of the 2027 general elections.

As the political season develops, Nigerians will also watch how the major parties structure their campaigns, present their policies and engage voters across the country.
