The Accord Party's decision to adopt President Tinubu is not without its challenges. The party's national leadership has made it clear that they are keen on seeing the completion of several infrastructure projects initiated by the Tinubu administration, including the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road and the Sokoto-Badagry highway. These projects, which are estimated to cost billions of naira, have been a major talking point in the party's discussions. The party's national leadership has also expressed concerns about the August governorship election, warning against violence, intimidation, electoral manipulation, and the use of security forces against members of the Accord Party in Osun State.
