A coalition of former governors, senators, and prominent political leaders from Nigeria's northern regions has unveiled a new political mobilisation platform called 'Arewa for Asiwaju (A4A)'. The group aims to support President Bola Tinubu's re-election in the 2027 presidential election, with a 14-member Board of Trustees (BoT) at its helm.
The BoT, chaired by former Kano State Governor and ex-Education Minister, Senator Ibrahim Shekarau, includes leaders from the North-west, North-east, and North-central regions. Edwin Olofu, Head of Media Relations, stated that the group will operate a structured organogram covering the 19 northern states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), with a National Directorate led by Badaru Abubakar, who will oversee overall campaign strategy.
