Government Ekpemupolo (alias Tompolo), Grand Patron of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement

The Grand Patron of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, alongside the Jigawa State Governor, Umar Namadi, and Zamfara State Governor, Dauda Lawal, have called on voters in the two states to massively support President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027.

They made the call on Thursday during the inauguration of the Jigawa and Zamfara State chapters of the Movement as part of efforts to strengthen grassroots mobilisation and consolidate support for President Tinubu ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The ceremonies also featured the unveiling of 56 campaign vehicles, comprising 31 vehicles for Jigawa State and 25 for Zamfara State.

Tompolo, who was represented at both inaugurations by the Managing Director of Tantita Security Services, Kestin Pondi, said the Movement was committed to complementing the efforts of the state governments and mobilising widespread support for President Tinubu through direct engagement with residents.

Mr Pondi explained that the vehicles were provided to strengthen the Movement’s operations, ease transportation challenges and enable members to reach more communities with information about the policies and achievements of the Tinubu administration.

He added that governors would control them and deploy them to convey the Movement’s message across the state.

He urged Nigerians to remain patient with the Tinubu administration’s economic reforms, noting that the benefits would take time to reach individual households.

According to him, the economy is stabilising, and state governments now have more resources to execute development projects and meet their obligations, including paying workers’ salaries.

Mr Pondi also commended the people of Jigawa State for their massive turnout and show of solidarity during President Tinubu’s recent visit, describing the reception as a demonstration of confidence in the president’s leadership.

He urged them to sustain the support by voting for President Tinubu and Governor Namadi in 2027, insisting that both leaders deserve another four years to consolidate their achievements.

He recalled that Jigawa and Zamfara States were among the states that contributed significantly to President Tinubu’s victory in the last presidential election, urging residents to surpass their previous electoral performance in 2027.

Mr Namadi reaffirmed the state’s commitment to President Tinubu’s re-election, saying the state remained firmly behind the president’s second-term ambition.

The governor thanked the people for their overwhelming turnout during President Tinubu’s recent visit, noting that the president was delighted and appreciative of the massive reception accorded him.

He described the presentation of the 31 campaign vehicles as a significant boost to the Movement’s mobilisation efforts. He urged members to use them judiciously to reach communities across the state.

The governor challenged party supporters to translate their enthusiasm into electoral victory, reminding them of the state’s earlier commitment to deliver two million votes for President Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.

“Jigawa State is an APC state and a state fully in support of President Tinubu. With your support, Allah will grant our wish,” Mr Namadi said.

In Zamfara, Governor Lawal thanked Tompolo and the Movement for supporting President Tinubu’s re-election campaign and assured the visiting delegation of the state’s commitment to the president.

He urged the Movement’s state leadership to take charge of its operations and assured them of his administration’s support, declaring that Zamfara was for the APC.

Earlier, the National Coordinator of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, Sunday Asuku, commended the people and leadership of both states for their support and commitment to the Movement’s activities.

Mr Asuku thanked Jigawa residents for their overwhelming support for President Tinubu and urged them to translate that solidarity into massive votes in 2027.

He also called on eligible voters to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) and participate actively in the forthcoming general elections.

In Zamfara, the National Coordinator commended the state leadership for its work and mobilisation efforts, declaring that Nigeria had the right people in leadership positions at both national and state levels, a situation he described as unprecedented since the return of democracy.

He urged supporters not to be distracted by opposition tactics but to remain focused on mobilising support for President Tinubu and sustaining the Movement’s grassroots engagement ahead of the 2027 elections.
