The Asiwaju Mandate Group (AMG) is launching a voter mobilisation campaign in Ondo State to support President Bola Tinubu's re-election in the 2027 general elections. The group's Director-General, Asiwaju Asagunla, stated that voter apathy is a significant issue in Nigeria, with many registered voters failing to participate in elections.
In Ondo State alone, there are nearly two million registered voters, but only around 600,000 typically cast their ballots. Asagunla emphasized the need for measures to combat voter apathy, including potential penalties for citizens who do not vote. The AMG has established a presence in all 18 local government areas, 203 wards, and nearly 4,000 polling units in Ondo State, with a focus on mobilising voters among traders, youths, students, artisans, labor unions, and transport workers.
Former Ondo State Commissioner Prince Solagbade Amodeeni praised the group's efforts, attributing the revival of political engagement in the APC to the leadership of Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
