Tompolo Leads Campaign to Secure Votes for Tinubu

As the January 16, 2027 presidential election approaches, field surveys indicate a strong likelihood of victory for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, with some analysts calling it an ‘electoral tsunami.’ High Chief Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo, known as Tompolo, is a key figure in this campaign, having launched the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement in June 2025. This initiative aims to engage voters through direct interactions rather than relying solely on social media.

The movement's strategy includes mobilizing volunteers to connect with voters across Nigeria's 774 local government areas, 8,809 wards, and 176,846 polling units, with a goal of securing at least 10 million votes for Tinubu. The campaign focuses on promoting Tinubu's achievements in infrastructure, agriculture, healthcare, education, and economic stability.

Tompolo's approach draws parallels to successful strategies used in other democracies, such as Barack Obama's 2008 campaign.
