APC Appoints Nollywood and Fuji Stars to Lagos Campaign Council
WHY IT MATTERS
Incorporating high‑profile entertainers into the campaign council may broaden the APC’s voter outreach and influence public perception during the election cycle in Lagos.
What happened
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has added prominent entertainers to its Lagos State Campaign Council, naming Nollywood actor Jide Kosoko, Fuji singer Eniola Badmus and actress Toyin Abraham among the new members. The council, tasked with coordinating the party’s electoral strategy in the state, now includes figures with broad public appeal and media reach.
By bringing these celebrities into the campaign structure, the APC aims to tap into their fan bases and enhance voter engagement ahead of the upcoming elections. The appointments signal the party’s intent to blend political messaging with popular culture, potentially increasing turnout in key demographics.
The council members are expected to participate in campaign events, outreach programs, and media appearances to promote the APC’s platform across Lagos.
