Full List of Tinubu&#8217;s Presidential Campaign Council as Soludo, Wike, Adeleke Join

Anambra State Governor Chukwuma Soludo has been added to President Bola Tinubu’s expanded 2027 presidential campaign council.

The revised list was released on Tuesday, October 13. It names Soludo as coordinator for Anambra State. The council is due to be inaugurated by Tinubu at the Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa in Abuja on today.

Soludo is not the only non-APC politician on the list. FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, has been made coordinator for Rivers State and the Federal Capital Territory. Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, who won re-election in August 2026 on the Accord Party platform, will coordinate the campaign in his state.

All 32 APC governors have also been appointed coordinators in their respective states. Senate Leader Opeyemi Bamidele and Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu are deputy directors-general for the South. Other names include Hadiza Bala Usman, Ibikunle Amosun, Akinwunmi Ambode, Festus Keyamo and Patrick Obahiagbon.

The expanded council builds on a first list issued on August 22, which named former Zamfara State Governor Abdulaziz Yari as director-general.

Reports say Tinubu made last-minute consultations before the inauguration, after public criticism of some of the earlier inclusions.

On paper, the pairing of an APGA governor with an APC campaign is unusual. In practice, it follows a position Soludo and his party have held for some time.

During Tinubu’s working visit to Anambra on May 8, 2025, Soludo announced that APGA had adopted the president as its consensus candidate for 2027.

He argued that the two parties share a progressive outlook. APGA has since declined to field a presidential candidate of its own, and the party’s stated approach for Anambra is a split: Tinubu for President, APGA for the Senate, House of Representatives and State House of Assembly.

APGA welcomed his appointment, describing it as recognition of his leadership qualities. The party said it expects his organising skills and influence in the South-East to help build support for Tinubu’s “Renewed Hope” agenda
