Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has called on Northern electorates to support the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027. This appeal was made while receiving 50 branded saloon cars donated by High Chief Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, for President Tinubu's campaign train. Governor Yusuf emphasized the importance of the North fulfilling its agreement to support President Tinubu's re-election.
According to Governor Yusuf, it is only appropriate for the North to respect the rotational agreement between the North and South by allowing President Tinubu to complete his eight years term in office. The Governor stressed that Nigeria's unity should not be compromised for any selfish interest. He recalled that the North had completed eight years under the late President Muhammadu Buhari and now it's the South's turn.
Governor Yusuf reiterated that the North must remain on the path of honour and abide by the initial consensus reached with Southern stakeholders. He urged all Nigerians, especially Northern brothers, to join forces for the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The Governor also urged opposition parties to base their campaigns for the 2027 race on issues rather than resorting to character assassination.
The Governor warned that no violence campaign would be tolerated in Kano. He applauded High Chief Tompolo for donating the campaign vehicles for the re-election of President Tinubu and all APC candidates in Kano. Governor Yusuf reassured Tompolo that the state would vote massively for all APC candidates.
Earlier, High Chief Ekpemupolo, represented by Kestin Pondi, declared that opposition parties should realize that there is "no vacancy in Aso Rock until 2031". He charged Nigerians not to allow themselves to be deceived by opposition party candidates claiming to have spent four years in office. Ekpemupolo added that President Tinubu has restored dignity to economic prosperity and spread development across the country.
Ekpemupolo urged Northerners to vote for Tinubu based on merit. He revealed that President Tinubu will not deceive Nigerians. The Chairman of Tantita Security Service emphasized that Tinubu's track record should be the basis for his re-election. Ekpemupolo's donation of 50 saloon cars is seen as a significant boost to President Tinubu's campaign in Kano State.
Governor Yusuf's appeal to Northern electorates to support President Tinubu's re-election is seen as a crucial move to ensure the President completes his two terms in office. The Governor's emphasis on respecting the rotational agreement between the North and South is a reminder of the importance of unity and cooperation in Nigeria's politics. The re-election of President Tinubu will be a significant event in Nigeria's politics in 2027.
