Tinubu to attend APC campaign rallies in Akwa Ibom, Rivers

President Bola Tinubu will attend All Progressives Congress (APC) campaign rallies in Akwa Ibom and Rivers states on Friday and Saturday as part of his re-election drive ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Tinubu will depart Abuja on Friday, November 6, for Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, where he is expected to participate in a political rally hosted by Governor Umo Eno.

On Saturday, the President will travel to Port Harcourt, Rivers State, for another APC rally.

The Rivers rally will be Tinubu’s third since he flagged off his re-election campaign in Kaduna last month.

According to a statement issued on Thursday by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, the visits will also provide the President with opportunities to engage political stakeholders, party members and supporters.

The statement said the engagements would emphasise unity, political stability and a shared commitment to national progress.

Tinubu’s visit to Akwa Ibom will also feature the commissioning of projects completed by Eno’s administration.

Among the projects scheduled for inauguration are the new International Terminal Building, International Airport Hospital and Ibom Aviation Village at the Victor Attah International Airport.

Other projects include the Airport-Okopedi Road, Ring Road 3, the AKWA-GIS Office Complex, Command and Control Centre and ARISE Palm Resort.

Eno has declared Friday a work-free day in the state to enable residents to welcome the President.
