Vice President Kashim Shettima and top All Progressives Congress (APC) figures campaign in Ado-Ekiti as part of efforts to mobilise support for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election ahead of the 2027 general elections. A rally is held to draw supporters around the “Renewed Hope” agenda and to showcase party involvement in the state.
The outlets’ coverage focuses on different aspects of the same trip. The Punch foregrounds photos and names APC Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda alongside Shettima, highlighting the rally and mobilisation effort in Ekiti. Nigerian Eye leads with Shettima’s arrival in Ado-Ekiti and provides additional context on reception details, describing meetings with state leaders and APC stakeholders. It also links the visit to ongoing federal interventions in Ekiti, including road reconstruction approvals, electricity support, and the Ekiti Knowledge Zone aimed at technology, innovation and jobs.
Both reports present the visit as a campaign stop in the Southwest and as part of Tinubu’s re-election push.
