The PBAT Door-to-Door Movement has declared unwavering support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, pledging to mobilise millions of Nigerians ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Speaking during activities marking the build-up to the 2026 National Convention of the All Progressives Congress, the National Coordinator of the group, Adekanbi Sunday Asuku, said Nigeria’s progress depends on continuity in leadership.

He emphasised that “the choice before Nigerians is Tinubu or Tinubu,” arguing that the current administration inherited longstanding structural challenges that require more time and sustained policies to resolve.

According to him, the movement has already commenced nationwide mobilisation across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, with a strong focus on grassroots engagement through door-to-door campaigns. He revealed that branded campaign vehicles and trained volunteers are currently being deployed, with plans to scale up operations in the coming months.

Describing the initiative as a “movement of the masses,” Asuku noted that the strategy is designed to connect directly with ordinary Nigerians rather than relying solely on elite endorsements. He added that ongoing government reforms and programmes indicate measurable progress that should be consolidated beyond the present administration.

The message, he said, was delivered on behalf of High Chief Oweizide Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, who serves as the grand patron and founder of the movement. Tompolo reaffirmed the group’s commitment to securing President Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.

He also called on Nigerians to actively participate in the electoral process, describing the forthcoming election as a defining moment for the nation’s future.

The group expressed confidence that its mobilisation drive would expand significantly nationwide as the election draws closer, positioning itself as a key grassroots force ahead of the polls.

The President of De Norsemen Kclub International (DNKI), Chief Oliver Patrick Ityohegh, has reaffirmed the organisation’s commitment to humanitarian service, stressing the importance of supporting vulnerable people and improving community welfare beyond the annual celebration of Humanitarian Day.

Ityohegh stated this during the organisation’s Cauldron Night and Award Presentation held to commemorate its 2026 Humanitarian Day celebration, theme: “Humanity First: Advancing Hope, Dignity and Community Well-being.” organised by the DNKI Abuja Chapter.

He emphasised that humanitarian service should be a continuous responsibility driven by compassion, solidarity and a commitment to making a meaningful difference in society.

According to him, DNKI’s humanitarian activities reflect its dedication to giving back to society and supporting people in need, while encouraging members to sustain initiatives that promote human dignity and community well-being.

He added that the organisation would continue to strengthen its humanitarian engagements through practical interventions aimed at improving the lives of vulnerable people and promoting community development.

Speaking at the event, the representative of the Abuja Chapter Chairman and Chairman of its Advisory Council, Prince Efiong Okpe, said the organisation’s humanitarian activities extended beyond the annual celebration of Humanitarian Day on October 15.

Okpe explained that DNKI undertook several initiatives throughout the year, including blood donation exercises, visits to hospitals and correctional centres, as well as support for orphanages and other vulnerable groups.

According to him, the organisation also collaborated with humanitarian bodies in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to identify areas of need and provide assistance within its available resources.

He described Humanitarian Day as an opportunity for members to renew their commitment to service and demonstrate solidarity with people facing difficult circumstances.

Earlier, the Chairman of the Planning Committee and Coordinator of the DNKI Gwagwalada Zone, Mr Etudaiye Hamzat, disclosed that the chapter had provided financial assistance to some members to help pay their children’s school fees, alongside distributing bags of rice and other relief items to members experiencing hardship.

Hamzat explained that the interventions followed concerns over the difficulties some members faced in meeting their family responsibilities, particularly the rising cost of their children’s education.

He maintained that supporting members in need was consistent with the organisation’s humanitarian principles, adding that DNKI remained committed to extending assistance to non-members and vulnerable communities as part of its commitment to leading by example.

Looking ahead, Hamzat said the Abuja Chapter planned to expand its humanitarian outreach to remote communities within the FCT, with particular attention to orphanages, schools and widows facing difficulties in meeting their family responsibilities.

He also recalled previous interventions for internally displaced persons (IDPs), which included the distribution of food, clothing and educational materials, noting that the chapter intended to scale up such initiatives in the coming year.

The highlight of the event was the presentation of awards to outstanding members and distinguished non-members in recognition of their contributions to humanitarian service.
