Groups supporting Bola Tinubu, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), have reportedly agreed to merge for grassroots mobilisation.<\/p>\n
James Faleke, the director of planning and logistics of the Tinubu support group, in a statement on Tuesday, said the groups resolved to merge into an organisation that would work for the victory of Tinubu and Kashim Shettima, his running mate, in the 2023 presidential election.<\/p>\n
Faleke said the group would be named the \u201cTinubu\/Shettima Independent Campaign Group (TSICG)\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs part of activities aimed at boosting the campaign efforts of the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima, over 5000 Support Groups have resolved to merge into an organisation named Tinubu\/Shettima Independent Campaign Group (TSICG),\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe groups resolved to set up coordinating committees in the various geo-political zones to facilitate the merger.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe committees are to review the membership of all Support Groups for strategic purposes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Faleke said the main target is grassroots mobilisation and coordination with \u201cstructures aimed at strengthening the campaign support base from the states through local governments, wards and polling units\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cRecall that thousands of support groups came together at the International Conference Centre, Abuja, on January 11, 2022 to endorse Asiwaju Tinubu\u2019s presidential bid which eventually succeeded at the primaries,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow, the same support groups and many more are coming together again under the Chairmanship of APC Chieftain, Senator Abu Ibrahim, to work for Tinubu\/Shettima\u2019s victory in the 2023 presidential election. <\/p>\n
\u201cLaunching arrangements billed to take place within the next few days are being fine-tuned.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
