Adamawa State Governor Ahmadu Fintiri declares that “Adamawa is Asiwaju state” while publicly aligning the state with President Bola Tinubu ahead of 2027. Coverage links the statement to the start of campaign activities in Adamawa and highlights local party engagement around Tinubu’s re-election bid.

Outlets also report Fintiri’s move to formalise campaign preparations within the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Adamawa. Premium Times says he announces an APC campaign council and names Major General Mohammed Buba Marwa (rtd) as co-chair, with council members urged to work in unity to deliver victories for the party.

Daily Post Nigeria emphasises the joint role of Fintiri and Buba Marwa, describing them as joint chairmen of the Adamawa State Campaign Council. The Punch similarly foregrounds Fintiri’s “Asiwaju state” framing and his expressed support for Tinubu’s 2027 re-election, tying political messaging to campaign momentum.
