DMI Backs Tinubu's Reforms, Forms Alliance for 2027 Elections

The Directorate of Mobilisation and Integration (DMI) has announced its support for President Bola Tinubu's economic reforms and formed an alliance with the Tinubu Must Stay Movement (TMS) in preparation for the 2027 general elections. Marvel Jime, DMI's Director of Policy and Administration, made this announcement in a position statement on October 24, 2026.

Jime emphasized the need to sustain effective reforms while addressing the economic hardships faced by Nigerians. She clarified that DMI's support does not equate to unconditional approval of all government decisions and that the organization will continue to engage with the administration on policies affecting citizens.

The alliance aims to advance DMI's objectives on national development, moving beyond internal disputes within the Labour Party. Jime stated that DMI is repositioning itself as a citizen-focused initiative, encouraging public participation in governance and policy discussions.

Membership in DMI is framed as a commitment to service rather than a guarantee of government benefits.
