Jigawa State is targeting two million votes for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027, Governor Umar Namadi said at the launch of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement’s state chapter, where 31 campaign vehicles were unveiled for grassroots mobilisation.
Namadi urged supporters to turn the state’s backing for Tinubu into votes, saying Jigawa was firmly behind the President’s re-election bid.
“Jigawa State is an APC state and a state fully in support of President Tinubu. With your support, Allah will grant our wish,” he said.
The vehicles were unveiled on behalf of the movement’s Grand Patron, High Chief Government Oweizidei Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo.
He was represented at the event by Chief Kestin Pondi, Managing Director of Tantita Security Services.
Namadi said the vehicles would help movement members reach communities across the state and campaign for Tinubu, his administration and APC candidates for the State and National Assemblies.
He urged members to use them effectively and turn supporters’ enthusiasm into electoral victory.
Tompolo praised Jigawa residents for their reception during Tinubu’s recent visit, calling it a sign of confidence in the President’s leadership.
He urged them to sustain their support for Tinubu and Namadi in 2027.
Recalling Jigawa’s contribution to Tinubu’s last presidential victory, Tompolo urged residents to surpass their previous performance.
He said the vehicles would help members reach more people, hear their concerns and explain the administration’s policies and achievements.
The National Coordinator of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, Comrade Sunday Adekanbi Asuku, also urged residents to turn their support into votes.
He called on eligible voters to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards and take part in the 2027 general elections.
The inauguration forms part of the movement’s effort to build support for Tinubu’s re-election through door-to-door outreach.
