A northern political support group, Arewa Think Tank, has pledged to mobilize two million votes for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general elections.
The group declared its support during a press briefing in Kaduna, expressing satisfaction with the administration’s performance and reaffirming its commitment to ensuring the president’s re-election.
Speaking on behalf of the group, its Chief Convener stated that the president had demonstrated strong leadership in navigating the country through complex challenges, particularly in areas of economic reform and national security. According to him, Tinubu’s policies have laid the groundwork for long-term development and should be sustained beyond 2027.
The group announced plans to begin early grassroots mobilization across the 19 northern states, focusing on building political awareness and consolidating support for the president. It emphasized that the target of two million votes was achievable through coordinated efforts with community leaders, youth groups, and civil society organizations.
In its assessment, the group noted that the administration’s efforts in stabilizing the economy, attracting investments, and addressing security concerns have resonated with many in the region. It also commended recent infrastructure projects and social intervention programs, which it said had impacted local communities positively.
The Arewa Think Tank maintained that the North has a strategic role to play in the next electoral cycle and expressed confidence that the region will deliver strongly in favor of Tinubu. It further called on other support groups and political stakeholders to unite behind the president’s vision for national transformation.
