The Allied Peoples Movement (APM) has accused President Bola Tinubu of misusing regional development funds to influence the 2027 general elections. The allegations, made by APM, suggest that Tinubu’s directive to release funds to regional development commissions could create opportunities for the misuse of public resources. This comes as the party continues to push for transparency and accountability in the electoral process.

The APM’s National Publicity Secretary, Yusuf Abubakar, stated that the move could open the door for vote-buying and other forms of electoral manipulation. The party has raised concerns about the potential for corruption and the integrity of the upcoming elections. These claims add to the growing political tensions ahead of the 2027 polls.

Meanwhile, APM’s governorship candidate in Lagos State, Prince Adelaja Adeoye, has emphasized his commitment to providing accountable governance. His campaign focuses on people-oriented leadership, reflecting the party’s broader goals of reform and public service.

The APM has also called for unity and transparency within its ranks, as seen in recent meetings in Lagos. These efforts highlight the party’s internal focus on grassroots mobilization and strengthening its political base ahead of the elections.
