Former Zamfara State Governor and Minister of State for Defence, Mohammed Bello Matawalle, on Saturday, led thousands of supporters in his hometown and Maradun South ward (Runfar Makaranta) to reaffirm support for Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the sole presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The reaffirmation, which was colourful by a massive turnout of APC members and supporters, witnessed party members publicly endorse President Tinubu’s second-term bid while participating in the party’s ongoing political activities at the grassroots level.

Speaking during the endorsement, Matawalle expressed confidence in the electoral prospects of President Tinubu and APC candidates across the country, predicting decisive victories for the ruling party in the 2027 polls.

He described the large turnout of supporters as a reflection of the strength of democracy and growing public confidence in the APC-led administration under President Tinubu.

The minister further maintained that the people of Zamfara State remain committed to the APC and fully supportive of the Tinubu administration.

“I did not realise the popularity of Tinubu has reached a certain impressive level in Zamfara State. What I am seeing today is that you people are communicating to the President and me that Zamfara State remains his second home after Lagos State.

“I found it necessary to express optimism that the party would record sweeping victories in all elective positions in the state and beyond during the forthcoming elections”, Matawalle has appreciated.
