Ekiti State Governor Biodun Oyebanji and political organiser Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, step up efforts to secure support for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election ahead of Nigeria’s 2027 presidential election. Reports say the outreach includes the inauguration of an APC presidential campaign structure in Ekiti and the launch of PBAT door-to-door mobilisation in the state.
Multiple outlets report Tompolo’s donation of 25 vehicles to support door-to-door engagement across Ekiti communities, including polling units, wards, local government areas, constituencies and religious centres. Oyebanji is reported to press for a large Ekiti vote share for Tinubu, including a target of delivering at least 80% of the votes cast in the state, framing the key issue as the margin of victory.
Other coverage broadens the picture to APC mobilisation in Oyo State. The Punch reports rallies supporting Tinubu (and, in one case, Sharafadeen Alli), including distribution of campaign or equipment items and youth empowerment with farm tools. Across outlets, coverage emphasises grassroots mobilisation and political confidence in Tinubu’s re-election, with different headlines highlighting either the organisational campaign set-up, the vehicle donation, or the vote-percentage goal.
