Yilwatda said the stakeholders had unanimously agreed to mobilise their political structures and supporters across the six states in the North Central and the Federal Capital Territory for the rally.

Describing the planned gathering as the “mother of all rallies”, the APC chairman said it would demonstrate the region’s collective commitment to the Tinubu-Shettima ticket ahead of the 2027 presidential election.

He added that the meeting also deliberated on strategies to strengthen coordination among party leaders and grassroots structures to ensure effective mobilisation across the region.

According to him, the stakeholders acknowledged Akume’s leadership in bringing political leaders from the North Central together and commended Governor Sule for accepting to host the rally in Nasarawa State.

The meeting also reviewed arrangements for the participation of party leaders, women, youths, grassroots organisations and supporters from across the region, with stakeholders reaffirming their commitment to ensuring the success of the event.
