“The convention is not just a routine exercise, but a moment of reflection, consolidation, and forward planning,” stated Mohammed Idris, emphasizing the significance of the upcoming APC Convention 2026.
Scheduled for March 27-28, 2026, at Eagle Square in Abuja, this event will gather delegates from all 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. The theme, “Unity in Progress – Consolidating the Renewed Hope Agenda,” reflects the party’s commitment to strengthening democratic values and internal governance.
Biodun Oyebanji, the Chairman of the Aspirants’ Screening Committee, noted that a 42-member committee has been established to oversee the nomination process. This committee is part of the logistical and operational arrangements that have already been concluded for the convention.
Aminu Masari highlighted the importance of maintaining party integrity, stating, “APC is a responsible Nigerian party. In line with federal character, all offices are zoned.” He also mentioned that some aspirants were denied access to nomination forms to prevent destabilization within the party, indicating the challenges faced in the lead-up to the convention.
The convention will feature leadership elections, policy engagement, and strategic direction-setting, making it a defining moment for the ruling party. Mohammed Idris further remarked, “This gathering will showcase our commitment to democratic ideals, organisational discipline, and inclusive decision-making.”
The APC has evolved into a resilient political platform, navigating through multiple electoral cycles and complex national challenges. As the party prepares for this significant event, the focus remains on fostering unity and progress.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding the specific candidates and policies that will be presented during the convention, but the anticipation continues to build as the date approaches.
