🧭 Overview: Who Controls Nigeria’s 36 States?

The All Progressives Congress (APC) currently holds the majority of states across all six geo-political zones, showing its strong national spread. The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) maintains influence in key areas, while other parties like Labour Party (LP) and All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) hold ground in the South-East and parts of the North-West.

🧠 Conclusion


Nigeria’s 2025 political landscape shows a strong APC footprint, but the undercurrent of regional politics — especially the rising influence of LP, APGA, and NNPP — continues to challenge the old order.

As political tensions and alliances evolve toward 2027 elections, the power pyramid could shift dramatically again.
