APC Unveils 2027 Manifesto, Sets Six Per Cent Economic Growth Target

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has unveiled its manifesto for the 2027–2031 period, outlining its proposed policies and economic targets ahead of the next presidential election.

The 109-page document, titled From Reforms to Prosperity, was presented on Tuesday, November 10, at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja. The event attracted senior government officials, party leaders and other stakeholders.

Among the party’s major economic promises is an ambition to achieve annual economic growth of six per cent and create one million export-related jobs by 2030. The manifesto also outlines plans covering security, infrastructure, economic development and improvements in living standards.

Speaking at the presentation, government officials defended President Bola Tinubu’s economic reforms, arguing that the policies introduced by his administration are laying the foundation for long-term development.

The APC also expressed confidence that the reforms would produce lasting results, with Minister of Information Mohammed Idris arguing that reversing the policies by 2031 would be difficult for any incoming administration.

However, the manifesto comes amid continuing concerns about inflation, the cost of living, unemployment and the economic difficulties facing many Nigerian households. The party will have to convince voters that its proposed targets can translate into tangible improvements in their daily lives.
