All Progressives Congress (APC) is a major political party in Nigeria. Formed in February 2013 through the merger of several opposition groups—including the Action Congress of Nigeria, the Congress for Progressive Change, the All Nigeria Peoples Party, and a faction of the All Progressives Grand Alliance—it positioned itself as a centre‑right, pro‑business party. The APC won the 2015 presidential election, bringing Muhammadu Buhari to power, and has since been the ruling party at the federal level, holding the presidency and a majority in the National Assembly.
