Northern Elite Declare Support For Tinubu’s Re-Election, Launch Movement

The group plans grassroots outreach across the North and says it will repeat its 2023 election role to secure Tinubu’s 2027 bid.

  • On Monday, northern political leaders met Vice President Kashim Shettima at the Presidential Villa in Abuja to formally launch Arewa For Asiwaju , a movement mobilizing regional support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's 2027 re-election.
  • Former Kano State Governor Ibrahim Shekarau stated the movement counters claims the administration neglected the North, declaring the region is 'ready and committed to the re-election of Mr. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.'
  • The Bank of Agriculture disbursed N450 billion to 700,000 smallholder farmers, with about 70 per cent of beneficiaries located in the North, according to group figures.
  • Vice President Shettima welcomed the initiative and pledged support, describing the administration's agenda as a 'secure, bulletproof guarantee for the region's future prosperity and stability.'
  • With the 2027 election approaching in less than three months, the group plans to engage religious and political stakeholders while the delegation invited Shettima to commission the A4A office complex on October 17, 2027.
