FULL LIST: Members of APC’s 2027 Presidential Campaign Council

By Fawzi Kehinde, August 22, 2026

The All Progressives Congress has released the complete membership list of its 2027 Presidential Campaign Council.

The document, released by the Presidency on Saturday, expands on an earlier release detailing top principal officers of the council.

As earlier reported, President Bola Tinubu will chair the council, with Vice President Kashim Shettima and APC National Chairman, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, serving as Vice Chairmen I and II respectively. Senator Abdulaziz Yari was named Director-General, while Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma, will serve as Secretary.

The expanded list, numbering 223 entries, adds directorates covering finance, extractive industries, education, manufacturing and MSMEs, support group coordination, faith-based mobilisation, protocol, labour union relations, special duties, stakeholders’ mobilisation, community support, digital operations, grassroots engagement, and welfare.

Former Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, was named Director of Stakeholders’ Mobilisation, while former Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola, will serve as Zonal Coordinator for stakeholders’ mobilisation in the South-West.

The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Heineken Lokpobiri, and his counterpart, Ekperikpe Ekpo, were listed as deputy directors of the extractive industry sector mobilisation directorate, working alongside the Group Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, Bayo Ojulari’s predecessor’s office holder, Olu Verheijen, who was named a secretary in the same directorate.

The Minister of Education, Tunji Alausa, was named Director of Education Sector Mobilisation, while the Minister of State for Education, Suwaiba Ahmad, will serve as his deputy.

Former Kaduna State Governor’s aide and ex-lawmaker, Shehu Sani, was listed as Deputy Director of Support Group Coordination, alongside Muri Ajaka.

The council also named separate directors for Christian and Muslim faith-based mobilisation, led by Stephen Adegbite and Sheikh Haliru Maraya respectively, along with deputies and secretaries drawn from both religious blocs.

Former Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Timipre Sylva’s associate and ex-Rivers lawmaker roles were not listed in this category, but the council named the Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development, Yerima Shettima, as Deputy Director of Labour Union Relations, working with veteran labour leader, Issa Aremu.

The full list is reproduced below.
