The presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement, APM, Seyi Makinde, has unveiled former Director-General of the Department of State Services, DSS, Lawal Musa Daura, as his running mate for the 2027 presidential election.

Makinde announced this on Thursday at the elective National Convention of the party in Bauchi.

The Oyo State Governor equally stated that the task before the opposition ahead of the 2027 general election was bigger than merely winning power.

According to him, the central challenge was to give Nigerians a genuine choice that would rescue the country and guarantee the future of its people.

He added that the coming campaign season would inevitably feature political slogans, promises and declarations by candidates but argued that Nigerians should demand more from those seeking to lead them.

“As we approach 2027, therefore, I believe the task before all of us is bigger than winning an election. It is to give Nigerians a real choice about the future of their country,” Makinde said.

DAILY POST reports that Lawal, who joined the APM a few days ago after resigning from the ADC, replaces Ibrahim Adamu Bala, who was earlier announced as Makinde’s running mate, but was intended to be a placeholder.
