Nyesom Wike Launches Rivers State Campaign for Tinubu
Minister Nyesom Wike inaugurated the Presidential Campaign Council for Rivers State with a target of three million votes for President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Nyesom Wike inaugurated the Presidential Campaign Council for Rivers State on Thursday to secure the 2027 re-election of President Bola Tinubu. Wike established a target of three million votes within the state and instructed council members to recruit at least five new voters every day.
Wike called for unity within the Rainbow Coalition and urged members to focus on issue-based campaigning to resist opposition provocation. Governor Siminalayi Fubara endorsed the new council, stating it is more coordinated than the structure used in 2023 and noting that former political rivals have now aligned to support the president.
Fubara warned council members against sabotage and double-dealing, asserting his own commitment to the campaign's success. Senate President Godswill Akpabio also participated in discussions regarding registered voter figures and the specific targets set for Rivers State.
