Seyi Makinde, the presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), has promised that his administration would not last beyond four years if elected president in the 2027 general election. Makinde said his proposed government would be inclusive and focus on addressing Nigeria’s major challenges, including insecurity, poverty, electricity supply and the rising cost of living.
“Our government will not last beyond four years. And it will be an all-inclusive government,” he stated. The declaration forms part of his emerging campaign message as political parties and candidates prepare for the 2027 elections. His proposal also raises questions about how the APM intends to implement its plans and ensure that different sections of the country are represented in government.
Seyi Makinde Explains His Four-Year Government Proposal
Makinde described his proposed administration as a government of national unity, suggesting that it would prioritise consultation and cooperation among Nigerians from different backgrounds.
He also indicated that his party wanted to hear from citizens before finalising its manifesto. According to his position, public participation would help the party develop policies that respond to the needs and concerns of Nigerians.
His four-year pledge provides a clear statement of intent regarding the proposed duration of his administration. However, details of how the government would operate, select its priorities and measure its performance would be important for voters assessing the proposal. As the campaign develops, Nigerians will have the opportunity to examine the party’s manifesto and compare its plans with those of other presidential candidates.
Seyi Makinde Calls for Transparency in Fuel Pricing
Makinde also raised concerns about fuel pricing and aspects of the Federal Government’s energy policies under President Bola Tinubu.
He questioned the implementation of initiatives involving compressed natural gas (CNG), electric vehicles and the naira-for-crude arrangement. He also called on the Federal Government to make its petroleum pricing template available to the public. Makinde argued that greater transparency would help Nigerians understand how petrol prices are determined and allow independent experts to examine the calculations.
His comments contribute to the continuing national discussion about fuel prices, economic reforms and the cost of living. The Federal Government has pursued changes to the country’s energy and economic policies, while critics have called for greater transparency and measures to reduce the pressure on households. As political activities continue, OGM News NG will follow the party’s policy announcements and responses from other political stakeholders.Editorial note: The report maintains a neutral tone and presents Makinde’s statements as political commitments rather than established outcomes.
