Hundreds of youths and students yesterday staged a solidarity trek in Abeokuta, Ogun State, declaring support for President Bola Tinubu, Governor Dapo Abiodun and Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola (Yayi) ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The rally, organised by the Yayi Progressives Movement, saw participants march through major streets of the state capital after converging at the MKO Abiola International Stadium, Kuto, carrying banners and placards while chanting slogans in support of the three All Progressives Congress, APC, leaders.
Addressing participants at the Ake Palace, the Convener of the movement, Engr. Armstrong ‘Tope Akintunde, said the solidarity trek was organised to demonstrate support for President Tinubu’s expected second-term bid, Governor Abiodun’s reported senatorial ambition and Senator Adeola’s governorship aspiration in Ogun State.
Akintunde said the mobilisation was inspired by what the group described as the economic reforms of the Tinubu administration, as well as the developmental and empowerment programmes of Governor Abiodun and Senator Adeola.
