Seyi Makinde, the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) presidential candidate, visited Angwan Rukuba in Jos North to commiserate with families affected by the March 29 massacre. He assured the community that they are not alone and emphasized the need for hope and resilience. Makinde also highlighted the importance of decentralizing Nigeria's security architecture through the establishment of state police, which he believes is crucial for addressing the nation's security challenges. He expressed confidence in his chances of winning the 2027 presidential election, attributing his aspirations to divine support and the backing of the Nigerian people.
Makinde's visit to Angwan Rukuba followed his church visits in Jos, where he urged Christians to actively participate in politics ahead of the 2027 election. He also addressed the security pillar of his Reset Nigeria Agenda, emphasizing the protection of lives as a non-negotiable priority. Despite recent resignations of some political appointees from the Oyo State Government, Makinde's political relevance is seen as built on his achievements and grassroots connections rather than the number of appointees in his government.
