2027: APC Decimates Opposition as LP Loses 18 Reps, PDP in Tatters

  • The All Progressives Congress (APC) is gaining momentum ahead of the 2027 polls, with the Labour Party (LP) losing 18 representatives and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) facing internal wrangling.
  • The LP’s numerical strength in the House of Representatives has dwindled from 35 to 17 members.
  • Defections from the LP to the APC and PDP have significantly reduced the party’s influence and standing in the National Assembly.

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is proving to be a formidable force ahead of the 2027 polls, with the opposition parties facing significant challenges. The Labour Party (LP), in particular, has been hit hard, losing 18 representatives to the APC and PDP.

The LP’s initial composition in the House of Representatives was relatively modest, with 35 seats secured in the 2023 general elections. However, the party has witnessed a series of defections, with lawmakers citing internal instability as the reason for their departure.

The APC’s gains come as the PDP faces internal wrangling, with some members resigning from the party. Despite this, the PDP has lifted the suspension on its House minority leadership, which may signal a stronger opposition to the APC in the future.

As the 2027 polls approach, it remains to be seen how the opposition parties will regroup and challenge the APC’s dominance.
