Kaduna Residents React to Tinubu's APC Rally Amid Allegations
The All Progressives Congress (APC) held a rally in Kaduna on October 24 to support President Bola Tinubu's re-election bid for the 2027 presidential election. Reactions from residents were divided; some expressed support for Tinubu, citing relatively fair food prices compared to before 2023, while others criticized the administration's economic policies and called for improved security and the restoration of fuel subsidies.
Mohamed Salihu Danlami, Speaker of the Arewa Youth Assembly, stated that the reforms introduced by Tinubu's administration would take time to yield results. Conversely, Babangida Kakaki, publisher of Ballpoint News, alleged that the crowd at the rally was a "rental crowd," mobilized with financial inducements, yet he still supported Tinubu's re-election due to a lack of viable alternatives.
Reports indicated that some APC campaign materials were destroyed by residents after the rally, reflecting public sentiment towards Tinubu's re-election ambition.
