Bodunrin Kayode
Borno State Governor, Professor Babagana Zulum has flagged off the campaign of his party the All Progressives Congress (APC) against the pending 2027 general elections slated for January.
The flag off which took place on monday, attracted a mammoth crowd of supporters, party executives and delegates from all the three senatorial zones of the state.
The event which was held at the Sports Centre in Maiduguri, drew enormous support from supporters across the state who came in solidarity with Governor Zulum’s transformational leadership phenomenon and the APC’s progressive agenda.
Several party stakeholders attended, including former Governor Maina Lawan, Ali Sherriff, APC Deputy National Chairman Ali Dalori, and Senators for Borno North, South, and Central Senatorial Districts respectively.
Gingering the crowd during his address, Governor Zulum expressed gratitude to the people of Borno for their steadfast support over the years, noting that in response, the APC-led administration has delivered unprecedented dividends of democracy despite the state’s lingering security challenges.
The Governor urged the party loyalists to continue supporting APC candidates in the 2027 general election, starting with President Bola Tinubu, the National Assembly APC candidates, Borno Gubernatorial candidate Engr Mustapha Gubio, and all the APC state Assembly candidates.
Other dignitaries present during the flag off rally included members of the House of Representatives, former Senators, Party Executives, and many senior party stakeholders.
Present also was the women’s delegation which was led by the First Lady of Borno state, Dr Falmata Zulum, who was accompanied by the wife of the Deputy Governor, wife of APC gubernatorial candidate and that of his deputy among others.
Borno state is a majority APC state which has voted for the party since it took charge of the centre government about 15 years ago.
