Governors elected on the All Progressives Congress platform have distanced themselves from any coalition or alliance with any individual ahead of the 2027 general elections, maintaining that they remain committed to the APC and its political structure.

Chairman of the APC Governors Forum and Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma, said this at the end of the governors’ meeting in Abuja late Monday night, stressing that they had not entered into any formal agreement with any individual or opposition party ahead of the election.
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and national leader of the Peoples Democratic Party, Nyesom Wike, who is serving in the APC-led Federal Government, has been championing a Rainbow Coalition movement in Rivers State in support of President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 elections.
Wike, who has been embroiled in disagreements with some APC governors, disclosed during his recent media chat that Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, and Uzodimma were allegedly behind his political challenges.
He said this was because of the growing national spread of his Rainbow Coalition, which he said was providing the PDP with a platform for politicians seeking to challenge the ruling party’s governorship and senatorial candidates in the next election, contrary to the governors’ interests.
In what appeared to be an indirect response to Wike’s remarks and his moves to expand his political influence across the states, the APC governors declared that they would not entertain any arrangement that could create confusion, divided loyalty or competing interests within the party.
Uzodimma, who read the communique at the end of the meeting, said the forum’s primary focus was to support official APC candidates at all levels rather than promote external interests.
He stated, “The APC Governors Forum unanimously resolved that its members will not participate in, support or endorse any alliance or political arrangement capable of undermining the re-election of Mr President, weakening the APC or adversely affecting any candidate of the party at all levels.
“In other words, the forum has no intention to support any candidate at any level that is not an APC candidate because our candidates who are contesting the election are being sponsored by our party.
“The governors’ campaign commitment is exclusively to all APC candidates. All levels of the party campaign architecture will align with the expectations of Mr President and the strategic objectives of the party.”
