2027: Gombe Agog For Tinubu As Inuwa Yahaya Reaffirms Commitment To APC Victory

…As P-BAT Door-to-Door Movement Inaugurates Gombe Chapter, Donates 26 Vehicles to Strengthen APC Mobilisation

Gombe State Governor, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, CON, has declared Gombe State firmly behind President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027, pledging to deploy the state’s formidable political machinery and grassroots mobilisation networks to secure victory for the President and the All Progressives Congress (APC) at all levels.

The Governor attributed Gombe people’s support for President Tinubu to the Federal Government’s development interventions in the state, particularly in agriculture, livestock development, infrastructure, health, energy and other strategic sectors of the economy.

Governor Inuwa Yahaya made this known on Tuesday at the inauguration of the Gombe State chapter of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, where 26 campaign vehicles donated by the movement were presented to strengthen grassroots mobilisation and expand the APC’s political reach across the state.
Expressing appreciation to President Tinubu for his administration’s commitment to Gombe State’s socio-economic development, the Governor singled out the Federal Government’s support for the Livestock and Agro-Development Zone in the state, the ongoing construction of the Gombe-Biu Super Highway as landmark interventions with far-reaching economic implications.

He noted that the President’s approval of N120 billion for the livestock development project would help transform agricultural production, strengthen livestock value chains, create employment opportunities and stimulate economic growth across Gombe State and the wider North-East region.

Governor Inuwa Yahaya maintained that the people of Gombe had compelling reasons to appreciate the President’s commitment to the state’s development, adding that the goodwill generated by these interventions would further strengthen the APC’s political base.
He pledged to galvanise party leaders, stakeholders and grassroots structures across the state to mobilise support for President Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.
The Governor also commended the founder and Grand Patron of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, High Chief Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, for donating the 26 vehicles, describing the gesture as a significant boost to the APC’s grassroots mobilisation and campaign efforts.
Earlier, Tompolo, represented by High Chief Kestin Pondi, said the vehicles were provided to enhance the movement’s mobilisation capacity, facilitate political engagement across constituencies and communities to deepen public awareness of President Tinubu’s policies and vision for Nigeria.
He commended Governor Inuwa Yahaya for the transformation taking place across Gombe State, citing investments in road infrastructure, education, healthcare, agriculture and economic development.
Pondi described the Governor as a progressive leader whose administration had demonstrated the developmental ideals of the APC, adding that the projects and reforms being implemented in Gombe provided a strong basis for the party’s political engagement with the electorate.
He specifically praised the Governor’s road infrastructure programme, noting that the construction of at least 100 kilometres of roads in each of the state’s 11 local government areas, as he had been informed, represented a significant investment in connectivity and grassroots development.
“This is development. This is connectivity. This is the dividend of democracy. If all governors had done what you have done, we would have less to worry about during campaigns, because performance would do the campaigning for us,” he said.
Also speaking, the Speaker of the Gombe State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mohammed Abubakar Luggerewo, commended the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement for supporting the APC’s mobilisation efforts in the state.
He equally acknowledged the support Gombe had received from the Tinubu administration across various sectors, noting the importance of sustained collaboration between the federal and state governments.
The National Coordinator of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, Hon. Sunday Adekanbi Asuku, urged residents of Gombe State to participate actively in the movement’s activities and mobilise support for President Tinubu ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
In his remarks, the Gombe State Coordinator of the movement, Khalid Ahmed Kumo, thanked Governor Inuwa Yahaya for the support extended to the organisation since it commenced operations in the state.

He assured the Governor of the movement’s continued engagement with the APC’s political structures in Gombe.
