The City Boys Movement, a campaign group supporting the re-election bid of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice-President Kashim Shettima, has begun grassroots mobilisation in Zamfara State ahead of the 2027 general elections. The group's efforts aim to garner support for the Tinubu-Shettima ticket. Ahmad Abdulaziz Yari, a member of the Governing Council of the City Boys Movement, spoke at a gathering of All Progressives Congress (APC) supporters in Gusau, highlighting the group's objectives.
Yari stated that the group believes a second term for the President and Vice-President would support further development across the country. He urged APC supporters and other Nigerians to support the administration's Renewed Hope Agenda. The agenda is a crucial aspect of the Tinubu-Shettima re-election bid, and the City Boys Movement is working to create awareness about its policies and programmes at the grassroots level.
The Zamfara State Chairman of the organising committee, Surajo Muhammad Birnin-Magaji, welcomed the gathering and emphasised the group's goal of mobilising support for the APC across the state. The committee's efforts will focus on creating a strong grassroots foundation for the Tinubu-Shettima re-election campaign. This move is seen as a strategic effort to secure support from various segments of the population.
Alhaji Muhammad Adamu, the Zamfara State Coordinator of Grassroots Mobilisers for Tinubu and Shettima 2027, outlined the organisation's plan to take its mobilisation campaign to communities across the state. The group will engage with local communities to provide direct information about the Tinubu-Shettima administration's policies and programmes. This approach aims to address the needs and concerns of the local population.
