The City Boy Movement, a faction of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State, has pledged to deliver one million votes for President Bola Tinubu’s re‑election bid in the 2027 presidential poll.

The group, which operates as a youth‑focused wing of the ruling party in the southwestern state, said it will mobilise its members and supporters to secure the promised vote count for the incumbent president.

According to the statement reported by Punch Nigeria, the movement’s target of one million votes reflects the APC’s broader strategy to consolidate backing ahead of the 2027 election, though no specific tactics or timelines were disclosed.

President Tinubu, first elected in 2023, is seeking a second term in a country where presidential elections are held every four years and where the electorate numbers in the tens of millions. Securing a million votes would represent a substantial contribution to any candidate’s total.

The announcement adds to the political activity surrounding the upcoming election cycle, but details on how the City Boy Movement intends to achieve the vote goal remain limited.
