The Presidential and Gubernatorial Campaign Council, Nasarawa State, has expressed profound appreciation to the people of Nasarawa State for the massive, unprecedented turnout at the Presidential Campaign Rally held on Wednesday, 4th November, 2026 at Lafia Square.

In a press release signed by the Director General of the Council, Hon. Dr. Joseph Oboshi Attah, ksm, fnipr, the Council said it was deeply humbled by the presence of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, represented by the Vice President, Senator Kashim Shettima, GCON, alongside other national leaders, governors, Senators, House of Representatives members, Ministers and party stalwarts.

The Council noted that their presence further energised its base and reaffirmed that Nasarawa remains an unshakable stronghold of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The Council described the rally as colourful, disciplined, well-organised and a clear demonstration of the overwhelming love, confidence and acceptance of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, and the APC Gubernatorial Candidate, Senator Ahmed Aliyu Wadada, by the people.

It said the mammoth crowd that trooped out from all 13 Local Government Areas and 147 Electoral Wards spoke louder than any propaganda, and has sent a clear message to the opposition that Nasarawa State is sealed for all APC candidates.

The Council, however, expressed deep dismay and outright condemnation of the shameful, uncivilised and desperate conduct of a few miscreants who attempted to portray the state in bad light before national leaders and guests.

It said their antics were swiftly overwhelmed by the maturity, discipline and vigilance of supporters and security operatives.

The Council attributed the disgraceful action to perceived failure, open frustration and the fear of imminent defeat, stressing that the people of Nasarawa State reject violence, thuggery and character assassination.

It therefore aligned itself with the call for a full-scale investigation to fish out and bring to book all those involved in the disgraceful act.

The Council called on members of the Campaign Council at all levels, stakeholders and party faithful to remain focused on the task ahead and not be distracted by noise.

“Keep your eyes on the ball, intensify grassroots mobilisation, and continue to preach the Renewed Hope and the HEARTS Agendas. Victory is in sight, and we must not allow any distraction to derail our march to victory,” the statement said.

Finally, the Council reassured President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Senator Ahmed Aliyu Wadada and the entire people of Nasarawa State of its full commitment to campaign vigorously and mobilise the people for massive votes.

It added that the success of the rally was just an indication of the landslide victory that awaits the party, urging all to remain focused on winning.
