A coalition of northern political leaders, former governors, serving and former senators and other stakeholders has concluded plans to unveil a political mobilisation platform called Arewa for Asiwaju ahead of the 2027 presidential election. The group is intended to serve as an organised northern vanguard for the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, with structures spanning the 19 northern states and the Federal Capital Territory. It will be led by a 14-member Board of Trustees chaired by former Kano State Governor and ex-Education Minister Ibrahim Shekarau. A statement by Edwin Olofu, Head of Media Relations for the group, announced the arrangements.
