The movement also expressed a vote of no confidence in the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, citing persistent insecurity, economic hardship, inflation and the rising cost of living as major concerns facing Nigerians.

According to the AAM leadership, Nigeria urgently needs accountable leadership capable of restoring public confidence, strengthening national unity and delivering inclusive economic growth.

Nationwide Mobilisation Begins Ahead of 2027 Elections

The Accord Alliance Movement announced plans to begin a nationwide mobilisation campaign across Nigeria's six geopolitical zones to strengthen grassroots participation and expand support for the Accord Party ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Adoko described Olawepo-Hashim as a seasoned democrat whose vision for national development continues to resonate with many Nigerians seeking political and economic change.

He urged party members and supporters to remain united and committed to building a strong political platform capable of offering Nigerians a credible alternative in 2027.
