ACOMORAN hails APC following the ruling party’s decision to retain Vice President Kashim Shettima as the running mate to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the 2027 presidential election.
According to reports monitored by Valid9ja, the Amalgamated Commercial Tricycle and Motorcycle Owners, Repairers and Riders Association of Nigeria (ACOMORAN) described the decision as a demonstration of confidence in the leadership, experience, and commitment of both President Tinubu and Vice President Shettima.
The association said the continuity of the Tinubu-Shettima ticket reflects the All Progressives Congress’ determination to build on the policies and programmes already introduced by the current administration.

Speaking on the development, ACOMORAN stated that Vice President Shettima has remained a dependable partner in government and has contributed significantly to the implementation of the administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
The association noted that retaining Shettima sends a positive signal to party members and supporters who believe stability in leadership is essential for achieving long-term national development goals.
Valid9ja gathered that ACOMORAN believes the Tinubu-Shettima partnership has provided strategic direction in governance since assuming office in May 2023, particularly in areas of economic reforms, infrastructure development, and national security initiatives.
According to the association, maintaining the same presidential ticket could strengthen confidence within the party ahead of the next general election.
Association Urges Party Unity Ahead of 2027
ACOMORAN also called on APC leaders, members, and supporters across the country to remain united as preparations for the 2027 election gradually gather momentum.
The group stressed that internal cohesion and collective commitment would be necessary if the party hopes to secure another electoral victory.
Information obtained by Valid9ja shows that the association views the retention of Shettima as a reward for loyalty, competence, and dedication to public service.
The group further encouraged Nigerians to continue supporting programmes aimed at improving transportation, youth empowerment, economic growth, and security across the country.
Political Activities Gather Momentum
Although the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has not officially released the timetable for the 2027 general election, political consultations, endorsements, and strategic alignments have continued among major political parties and stakeholders.
Political observers say endorsements from influential groups often help shape public perception ahead of elections, even though the final decision ultimately rests with Nigerian voters.
