The All Progressives Congress (APC) solidarity movement in Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State has intensified its grassroots mobilisation for the 2027 general elections, projecting more than one million votes for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu while rallying support for Governor Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang’s re-election.

Chairman of the rally’s organising committee and immediate past chairman of Jos North Local Government Area, Hon. Shehu Bala Usman, said the gathering was designed to consolidate grassroots support for the political leaders and candidates endorsed by the movement ahead of the elections.

Usman, who also coordinates the movement for the re-election of President Tinubu and Governor Mutfwang in Plateau State, said the rally demonstrated the organisers’ determination to expand their political reach and mobilise voters across communities.

He applauded the National Chairman of the APC Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda for sponsoring and mobilising massive votes for President Tinubu ahead of the 2027 elections nationwide.

He described the initiative for the Jos North Rally  as an effort to bring together supporters committed to the movement’s political objectives.

On the Tinubu administration, Usman urged Nigerians to exercise patience with the President’s economic reforms, arguing that the policies required sufficient time for their effects to become evident.

He acknowledged the mixed reactions to the reforms but maintained that the administration deserved another opportunity to pursue its programmes.

He also pointed to federal road construction projects as examples of infrastructure development capable of stimulating economic activities and contributing to efforts to address security challenges.

The former council chairman expressed optimism that the movement’s mobilisation efforts could help the President secure more than one million votes in Plateau State in 2027.

 He said the group was equally determined to build support for Governor Mutfwang, and other candidates in their respective constituencies.

The Chairman of Jos North Local Government Area, Hon. J.K. Chris, commended President Tinubu, the APC National Chairman and Governor Mutfwang, describing the turnout at the rally as evidence of support for the two leaders.

Chris particularly highlighted local government autonomy, stating that it had created greater opportunities for councils to deliver democratic dividends to residents at the grassroots.

He attributed the council’s ability to serve its communities partly to the Federal Government’s policy direction and the President’s disposition towards strengthening local government administration.

The council chairman also pledged support for Tinubu, Mutfwang and other APC candidates, urging party supporters to sustain mobilisation activities ahead of the 2027 elections.
