Gombe State Governor, Yahaya Inuwa, says Northern Nigeria is ready to support President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027.
He made the statement recently, at a high-level conference in Kaduna, where leaders from across the North gathered to assess Tinubu’s performance so far.
According to the governor, the North’s backing of Tinubu in the 2023 election is already bringing visible results.
“The support given to Tinubu during the 2023 election is already yielding tangible results in the areas of infrastructure, security, agriculture and power,” he said.
The two-day meeting, organised by the Sir Ahmadu Bello Memorial Foundation, focused on the President’s promises and what has been delivered, especially in northern Nigeria.

Present at the event were Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani, Secretary to the Government of the Federation Senator George Akume, National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu, ministers, service chiefs, and other top political figures from the region.
With the theme, “Assessing Electoral Promises: Fostering Government-Citizens Engagement for National Unity,” the session attracted participants from all 19 northern states and the Federal Capital Territory.
The Director-General of the Sir Ahmadu Bello Memorial Foundation, Dr Abubakar Umar, said the gathering continues a long tradition of the North holding federal governments accountable.
He explained that the goal is to review Tinubu’s two years in office and determine how well his administration has responded to the region’s pressing economic and security issues.
“This review will serve as a critical litmus test to measure the federal government’s responsiveness to the socio-economic and security challenges facing Northern Nigeria,” the foundation said.
