Seyi Makinde, presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples’ Movement (APM), has pledged to serve only one four-year term if elected president of Nigeria in the 2027 general election.
Makinde made the pledge on Saturday during the APM town hall meeting in Yola, the Adamawa State capital, where he outlined his plans to address some of the country’s major challenges.
The Oyo State governor said his proposed administration would operate as a transitional government of national unity, promising an inclusive approach to governance.
“Our government will not last beyond four years. And it will be an all-inclusive government,” Makinde said.
He also promised to reset the country and tackle insecurity, poverty, electricity shortages and other problems affecting Nigerians.
The one-term pledge places the proposed four-year transition at the centre of Makinde’s presidential campaign, with his message focusing on national unity and addressing pressing socioeconomic challenges.
The 2027 presidential election is expected to feature political parties and candidates seeking to convince Nigerians of their plans for the country’s future.
