A member of the House of Representatives representing Ikeja Federal Constituency, James Faleke, has obtained the All Progressives Congress, APC, Expression of Interest and Nomination forms on behalf of Bola Ahmed Tinubu ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
The forms were presented on Tuesday in Abuja by the APC National Organising Secretary, Suleiman Argungu, who formally announced the commencement of the party’s nomination process.
Faleke, who is also the founder of the Tinubu Support Groups, received the documents on behalf of the President.
The purchase of the forms, valued at N100 million, is seen as a formal indication of Tinubu’s intention to seek a second term in office.
