The All Progressives Congress (APC) 2027 Presidential Campaign Council has announced a series of leadership changes aimed at tightening its organisational structure ahead of the upcoming general elections.
Imo State Governor and council secretary Hope Uzodimma unveiled the appointments in a statement on Monday, saying the changes were designed to improve coordination, strengthen the council’s structure and boost operational efficiency.
Under the new arrangement, Farouk Aliyu will head a newly created Directorate of Stage Organisation and Management, with Adejare Bello appointed as co‑director. The directorate will oversee all stage‑related activities for the campaign.
For youth mobilisation, the council has named Youth Development Minister Ayodele Olawande as director, with Dayo Israel serving as his deputy. In the women mobilisation arm, Mary Aille Idele has been appointed director, assisted by deputy director Betta Edu and secretary Imaan Suleman.
Uzodimma said the appointees were expected to deploy their experience and organisational skills to their respective roles and collaborate with other directorates in implementing the council’s campaign and mobilisation plans.
The reshuffle comes as the ruling APC prepares for the 2027 presidential election, with youth and women mobilisation identified as key components of its strategy to support President Bola Tinubu’s re‑election bid.
