Tinubu Supporters Hold 2027 Re-election Rally in Adamawa

Supporters of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu have held a rally in Yola, Adamawa State, to mobilise support for his re-election in 2027 under the campaign tagged Tinubu Must Go Again 2027 (TMGA 2027).

The rally took place on Thursday at Lamido Cinema, Yola, with organisers saying it attracted supporters and representatives from the six states of the North-East.

The organisers described the gathering as part of efforts to strengthen support for Tinubu in the region ahead of the 2027 presidential election.

Speaking at the event, the campaign's National Coordinator, Professor Sheriff Almuhajir, said the rally was organised voluntarily to express support for the president and explain the economic reform policies of his administration.

Almuhajir urged Nigerians to assess the government's economic reforms in the context of the challenges facing the country, arguing that difficult policy decisions could be necessary to achieve long-term economic development.

He also cited Tinubu's alleged support for politicians from Northern Nigeria, including individuals from Adamawa State, as evidence of his political relationship with the region.

The coordinator said the turnout exceeded the organisers' expectations, claiming that thousands of young men and women marched for more than a kilometre to demonstrate their support.

However, the attendance figure was not independently verified.

Adamawa State APC Secretary Mustapha Atiku Ribadu also called for continued support for Tinubu, citing the president's political relationship with the state and federal infrastructure projects as reasons for backing his administration.

“We are determined to mobilise our people in support of his second term. We will vote for the APC from top to bottom,” Ribadu said.

The state's APC Deputy Chairman, Dr Raymond Chidama, who represented the party's state chairman, thanked the campaign organisers for selecting Adamawa as the starting point for the mobilisation exercise.

According to the organisers, the Yola rally forms part of a broader campaign to engage young people, women, professionals and community leaders across the country ahead of the 2027 general election.
