Rep. Abejide Encourages Kano Support for Tinubu, Yusuf
Rep. Abejide, the Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Customs, called on Yoruba and other non-indigenous communities in Kano State to support President Bola Tinubu and Governor Abba Yusuf for the 2027 general elections. This appeal was made during an empowerment programme for widows organized by his foundation, where he announced a N600m interest-free revolving loan scheme aimed at boosting women's businesses.
Abejide, who has lived in Kano since February 1993, expressed concern over the low voter turnout for Tinubu in the 2023 presidential election, urging beneficiaries to mobilize support across various polling units. He plans to select coordinators from among the women to ensure the protection of party votes.
Former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello also attended the event, encouraging support for Tinubu and Yusuf based on federal infrastructure projects in Kano. Governor Yusuf praised Abejide's initiative, advocating for support across ethnic and religious lines to foster national unity.
