2027: Shekarau, Shema, Geidam, Badaru, others form Tinubu’s reelection mobilisation group

Northern political groups have united under the Arewa for Asiwaju coalition to rally behind President Bola Tinubu's re-election campaign for 2027. The A4A initiative brings together former governors, current and ex-senators, ministers, and grassroots leaders from all 19 Northern states and the Federal Capital Territory. The coalition's leadership includes a 14-member Board of Trustees, with former Kano Governor Ibrahim Shekarau as chair, and ex-Yobe Governor Ibrahim Geidam and ex-Plateau Governor Simon Lalong as deputies.

The National Directorate, led by former Defence Minister Badaru Abubakar, coordinates the campaign across the 19 states and FCT. Each of the three geopolitical zones has a Deputy National Coordinator, while specialized directorates handle finance, operations, communications, youth affairs, business, religion, civil society, parliamentary mobilization, research, ICT, entertainment, traditional institutions, women, and academia.

At the grassroots level, coordinators have been appointed in every Northern state and the FCT to drive local support for Tinubu's re-election bid.
