‘They thought I’d be sleepy’: Tinubu thanks ADC for keeping him awake

In Abuja, President Bola Tinubu took a swipe at the African Democratic Congress (ADC), thanking it for keeping him awake during a meeting with supporters of the CityBoy Movement and Relax Tinubu Is Fixing Nigeria. Ahead of the 2027 presidential election, in which former vice president Atiku Abubakar is the ADC candidate, Tinubu praised the CityBoy Movement’s organisation and its claimed network across states, local governments, wards and polling units. He also highlighted its call centre for young Nigerians and its community outreach initiative, CityBoy Care. Tinubu said the grassroots mobilisation would let him go home and “sleep soundly.”
