President Tinubu's 2027 campaign opens in Kaduna
As Director-General, Senator Yari received President Tinubu in Kaduna for the opening of the campaign, which he said would focus on the administration's record.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu opened his 2027 re-election campaign at the Ranchers Bees Stadium in Kaduna on 24 October 2026. Senator Yari, as Director-General of the campaign council, received the President in the state.
Senator Yari said the campaign would focus on the administration's record, and that the council had been talking with traditional rulers, Islamic scholars and imams to explain why the re-election matters.
“This is more than a campaign flag-off; it is a movement determined to consolidate our progress and renew the mandate,” he wrote afterwards.
At the same rally, Vice President Shettima listed federal work in education: the Federal University of Applied Sciences, the Federal University of Education in Zaria, vocational institutes in Rigachikun, Soba and Samaru with more than 4,000 graduates, and student loans through NELFUND.
He also named major projects for the North: the Ajaokuta-Kaduna-Kano gas pipeline, the Kano-Maradi railway, the Lagos-Kano rail corridor, the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano road and the Sokoto-Badagry highway.
