Thousands of supporters of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu have filled the Kaduna Township Stadium as the All Progressives Congress (APC) formally launches its presidential campaign for the 2027 general elections on Saturday, October 24, 2026.
The rally has attracted supporters from different parts of the country, with attendees wearing outfits bearing Tinubu’s image, displaying campaign messages and participating in activities organised ahead of the arrival of the President and other party leaders. The gathering is aimed at mobilising support for Tinubu’s bid for a second term.
The campaign launch follows a solidarity march through Kaduna on Friday, when thousands of APC supporters moved through major streets before proceeding to the state government house. Governor Uba Sani received the delegation and urged party supporters to sustain their mobilisation efforts ahead of the elections.
Ahead of the rally, security was tightened across Kaduna, with security personnel deployed to strategic locations. Organisers also made preparations at the stadium to accommodate party leaders, elected officials and supporters expected from across the country.
The campaign is expected to bring together APC governors, National Assembly members, party executives and support groups as the ruling party begins a broader mobilisation drive for the 2027 presidential election.
