APC Rally in Damaturu Draws Large Crowd as Supporters Signal Mixed Preferences, Adopts All APC Candidates, Rejects Tinubu for President
A major All Progressives Congress (APC) rally in Damaturu, Yobe State, has attracted a large gathering of party supporters, creating a notable political spectacle in the city.
The rally brought together a significant number of APC faithful who turned out in party colours and participated in the mobilisation activities as the party continues its preparations for the 2027 general elections.
Despite the strong presence of APC supporters at the event, the gathering has also drawn attention to an apparent difference in preferences among some participants regarding the party’s candidates.
According to the description of the scene, some of the supporters appeared to express support for APC candidates at various levels, while excluding President Bola Ahmed Tinubu from their stated preference.
The development has added another layer to the growing political conversations surrounding the APC’s preparations for the 2027 elections, particularly as party activities intensify across different states and political constituencies.
The Damaturu gathering underscores the importance of grassroots mobilisation to political parties ahead of elections, while also highlighting that the presence of party supporters at a rally does not necessarily mean uniform support for every candidate associated with t
he party.
