Shettima Advocates for Tinubu's Reforms at APC Rally
On November 3, 2026, Vice-President Kashim Shettima defended President Bola Tinubu's economic reforms during an All Progressives Congress (APC) rally in Calabar, Cross River State. He urged voters to evaluate the administration based on the country's situation when Tinubu took office in 2023.
Shettima acknowledged the hardships caused by the reforms but argued they were necessary for economic transformation, comparing Tinubu's leadership to that of Singapore's founding Prime Minister, Lee Kuan Yew. He called for renewed support for the APC in the upcoming 2027 elections, highlighting Cross River's political significance.
Governor Bassey Otu pledged that the state would deliver maximum votes for Tinubu, citing federal benefits received under his administration. Otu encouraged APC members to mobilize voters across the state's 18 local government areas, emphasizing loyalty to the party and the President.
