On October 9, 2026, the Muslim group Al-Faedat Tijjaniyyah fil-Islam announced its endorsement of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his re-election bid during the 2027 general elections. This decision was made during an emergency meeting held in Ibadan.
The group also declared Senator Sarafadeen Abiodun Alli as their chosen candidate for the governorship of Oyo State in the same elections. Alhaji Abdullateef Yeskuru Adewale, the coordinator of the movement in Oyo State, stated that the endorsement was based on Tinubu's performance and the attributes of the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidates.
Adewale emphasized that the decision followed extensive consultations and prayers within the group, which comprises over 200,000 voters in Oyo State. The group expressed confidence that Tinubu is the best candidate to lead Nigeria until 2031 and committed to supporting all APC candidates in the upcoming elections.
