2027: Northern Nigerians will repay Tinubu with votes – Sani, Yari

Kaduna Governor Uba Sani and Abdulaziz Yari stated that northern Nigerians will repay President Tinubu with votes in 2027 due to his efforts regarding security and infrastructure, according to Punch.

During the inauguration of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement headquarters in Abuja, First Lady Oluremi Tinubu suggested that those who do not recognize the country's progress might need "Bola Tinubu eyeglasses." Punch Nigeria reports that she cited improvements at Nigerian airports as evidence of progress. The term "Jigi-Bola" refers to an eye-care initiative introduced by the President during his time as Lagos State governor.
