Taraba State Governor Agbu Kefas and High Chief Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, have publicly rallied support for President Bola Tinubu’s bid to secure a second term in the 2027 Nigerian presidential election, according to a report by Punch Nigeria.
The two leaders affirmed their backing for Tinubu, signalling alignment with the incumbent administration as the country looks ahead to the next electoral cycle.
President Tinubu, who was first elected in 2023, is seeking re‑election in 2027. Taraba State, located in Nigeria’s north‑eastern region, is one of the nation’s 36 states and often plays a pivotal role in national politics.
Endorsements from state governors and influential traditional figures such as Tompolo are viewed as significant in shaping voter sentiment and party dynamics ahead of the forthcoming elections.
The endorsement was reported by Punch Nigeria; further statements or political developments are expected as the 2027 campaign period progresses.
