The Coalition Support Groups of Tinubu/Kashim in the North-East has pledged its allegiance to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice President Sen. Kashim Shettima, declaring that nothing will stop the duo in the 2027 general elections.
The group also assured that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) will retain power at the center and win more states, citing the progress made by the present administration.
This was contained in a statement signed by Hon. Yazid Inuwa M.K. Bauchi, National DG of the Coalition Support Groups of Tinubu/Kashim – North-East, and made available to newsmen in Bauchi.
It stated that, “Our attention has been drawn to the so-called “expanded meeting” held today, Sunday, May 25th, 2025, by a group styling itself as the National Political Consultative Group North, at the Ladi Kwali Hall, Abuja Continental Hotel.”
It then described as empty rhetorics with no clear mandate, a meeting held by another group, National Political Conservative Group North, in Abuja over the weekend.
It stated that the meeting was a mere gathering of politicians who have lost political relevance in the country’s political scene and therefore, cannot add any value to the 2027 political permutations.
The group stressed that,”While we uphold and respect the democratic right of every Nigerian to assemble and express political views, we are compelled to strongly debunk the illusion that this gathering holds any legitimate mandate to speak on behalf of the people of the North or the North-East in particular.”
“Let it be made categorically clear:This meeting lacks credibility, grassroots validation, and any recognized political weight. It represents a narrow interest group driven more by personal ambition and opportunism than genuine public concern,” he added.
According to him,”President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima continue to enjoy overwhelming support across the North-East and broader Northern Nigeria.”
He stressed that, “Their administration has shown clear commitment to the development and security of our region, including massive infrastructure projects, agricultural revival efforts, and strategic economic empowerment programs.”
The group warned that, “Attempts to distract from this administration’s achievements are not only misdirected—they are destined to fail. The people of the North-East are politically conscious and can differentiate between noise and genuine leadership.”
“We urge the public and the media to treat today’s meeting for what it truly is: a political jamboree without consequence, lacking in moral or democratic authority,” he added.
According to him, “The Coalition Support Groups of Tinubu/Kashim – North-East remain resolute in our unflinching support for the Renewed Hope Agenda and the transformative leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima. We call on well-meaning Northerners to stay focused, united, and to continue working for the peace and progress of our great nation.”
