Youth professionals in Nigeria's Kwara South APC have appealed to aggrieved party aspirants to support Speaker Yakubu Danladi-Salihu's bid for governor in 2027, aiming to foster unity within the party.

The APC in Kwara's Oyun LGA has endorsed President Tinubu's re-election and supported Yakubu Danladi-Salihu for governor in 2027, advocating for a power shift to Kwara North.

Elders within the Kwara APC have rejected Speaker Yakubu Danladi-Salihu as the governorship candidate for 2027, warning that his candidacy could jeopardize the party's victory and worsening the internal crisis.

The Kwara All Progressives Congress (APC) Chairman, Sunday Fagbemi, has defended Yakubu Danladi-Salihu's emergence as the party's candidate for the 2027 governorship race, citing his competence.
