Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State has announced that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is deploying over 4.4 million polling unit officials nationwide as part of its grassroots strategy to secure President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.
Speaking to journalists on Wednesday after a closed-door meeting with the President at the State House, Abuja, Uzodimma, who also chairs the APC National Campaign Committee, said the party is leaving nothing to chance.
“We are deploying 4.4 million officials across all polling units in Nigeria. These are trained party loyalists who will engage voters at the grassroots. This is not about rigging; it is about mobilization and ensuring our message reaches every Nigerian,” Uzodimma stated.
He added that the party is confident of victory based on what he called “Tinubu’s performance and connection with the masses.”
The opposition has dismissed the claim as mere grandstanding, with the NDC and PDP accusing the APC of planning to weaponize grassroots structures for electoral manipulation.
The APC National Secretariat has yet to release an official breakdown of the deployment figures.
