\u200e
\u200eA member of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, Dr Musa Illiyasu Kwankwaso, has urged supporters of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the North to remain focused and intensify grassroots mobilisation ahead of the 2027 general elections.
\u200e
\u200eKwankwaso cautioned party members against being distracted by criticism from opposition groups, insisting that such attacks would not weaken the President\u2019s political support base in northern Nigeria.
\u200e
\u200eHe made the call on Tuesday while reacting to opposition criticism of the Tinubu administration, expressing confidence that the President\u2019s supporters in the region remained committed to his re-election.
\u200e
\u200e\u201cThere is no panic and no going back in our support for Tinubu. The criticisms coming from the opposition will not stop us from voting for him in the North,\u201d he said.
\u200e
\u200eThe APC chieftain urged party members to concentrate on strengthening their structures, maintaining regular contact with voters and seeking their support ahead of the elections.
\u200e
\u200e\u201cDon\u2019t allow the opposition criticism to distract you, concentrate on strengthening the party structures and maintaining regular contact with voters and seek their support ahead of the elections,\u201d he said.
\u200e
\u200eHe described the opposition\u2019s criticism as part of political manoeuvring ahead of the 2027 elections, arguing that hostile political rhetoric alone could not erase Tinubu\u2019s support across northern communities.
\u200e
\u200eAccording to him, voters in the region were increasingly concerned about issues affecting their daily lives, including economic recovery, security, infrastructure development, employment and national stability.
\u200e
\u200eKwankwaso maintained that the policies, programmes and achievements of the Tinubu administration since assuming office had continued to strengthen confidence among supporters.
\u200e
\u200eHe added that supporters of the President would intensify grassroots engagement across northern communities to communicate government policies and highlight what they considered the administration\u2019s achievements.
\u200e
\u200eThe APC chieftain expressed confidence that the political coalition backing Tinubu would remain united and focused, adding that supporters were prepared to defend the administration\u2019s record and seek another mandate.
\u200e
\u200eHe called on Tinubu\u2019s supporters across northern Nigeria to remain committed, describing the 2027 elections as an opportunity to sustain ongoing government policies and programmes and give the President more time to consolidate his development agenda.
