The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Adamawa State is set to formally commence its campaign activities ahead of the 2027 general elections, with Mahmud Ribadu Square in Yola expected to host a major political gathering on Thursday, 12 November 2026.
The event, described by organisers as the ‘Mother of All Rallies’, is expected to bring together prominent party leaders, political stakeholders, supporters and residents from across the state.
Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri has invited members of the public, APC supporters and political associates to participate in the rally, which is scheduled to begin at 10:00 am.
The campaign flag-off is expected to mark a significant step in the party’s efforts to strengthen its political presence in Adamawa and mobilise support ahead of the 2027 elections.
The rally also comes amid growing political activity surrounding President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s anticipated re-election bid.
Governor Fintiri, who defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the APC, has previously expressed his commitment to securing victory for the ruling party in Adamawa State.
In April 2026, during the APC state congress held at Mahmud Ribadu Square, the governor announced the formation of the Adamawa Renewed Hope 226 Movement, a political mobilisation structure established to support Tinubu’s re-election.
The movement, which Fintiri said would operate from the ward to state level, was designed to bring government officials, local government chairmen, councillors and other political stakeholders together under a coordinated campaign structure.
Adamawa is considered an important political battleground ahead of the 2027 presidential election, particularly because it is the home state of former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, who remains a prominent figure in opposition politics.
The APC’s planned rally is therefore expected to attract considerable attention as the party seeks to consolidate its position and demonstrate its growing political strength in the state.
The gathering at Mahmud Ribadu Square will provide an opportunity for the party to formally engage supporters and communicate its political objectives ahead of the forthcoming general elections.
