Tompolo, the Grand Patron of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, has been urging residents of Ogun State to support President Bola Tinubu's reelection bid in 2027. He made this call during the inauguration of the movement's Ogun State chapter in Abeokuta, where he received 26 campaign vehicles and other mobilisation materials.

Tompolo praised Tinubu's "bold policies" that have restored investors' confidence in the Nigerian economy. He highlighted the administration's efforts to address fuel scarcity, improve infrastructure development, and ensure regular payment of salaries and pensions. Tompolo stated, "Nigeria must be better," and suggested that the president's vision is being realized. He noted that there is no more capital flight, investors are returning, and the naira is stabilising.

Despite the challenges that come with reforms, Tompolo expressed confidence that Nigeria would emerge stronger if the government continued its policies. He compared the situation to a woman in labour, saying that while there are challenges, the birth of a child brings immense joy. He confidently claimed that countries that have attained economic development have gone through similar reform processes and come out stronger.

Tompolo urged everyone to support Tinubu by going around and telling people that he is the best candidate. He expressed the hope that Nigeria would emerge stronger under Tinubu's leadership. He also emphasized that every developed country has followed a similar path to achieve economic development and that Nigeria will be no exception.

Governor Dapo Abiodun, representing his deputy at the event, commended Tompolo's movement for its support and said that the activities of the movement would complement other efforts to mobilise voters for Tinubu. She noted that Ogun State is prepared to support Tinubu in appreciation of the benefits it has received from his administration's policies and reforms.

Abiodun addressed the electorate, urging them not to become complacent and to come out and vote. She reminded them that victory is not assured and that their active participation in the electoral process is crucial.
