2027: Thousands march in Ebonyi in support of Tinubu’s re-election

Thousands of supporters marched across Ebonyi State on Tuesday to back President Bola Tinubu’s 2027 re-election bid and Governor Francis Nwifuru. Mobilised by the Ebonyi United Forum, the marchers—estimated at 20,000 by organisers—opposed anti-Tinubu protests and carried placards supporting the president and the APC. In Abakaliki, Works Minister David Umahi praised Tinubu’s reforms and criticised the opposition. March leader Chinedu Nwali said the South-East had benefited from federal projects and pledged Ebonyi youths’ support for Tinubu, Umahi and Nwifuru.
