President Bola Tinubu is taking his 2027 re-election campaign to Rivers State, with an All Progressives Congress (APC) rally in Port Harcourt on Saturday.
CDA News Nigeria reports that the Presidency says the rally will be his third since he flagged off the campaign in Kaduna last month.
In a statement, presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga said Tinubu left Abuja on Friday for a two-state visit. He first commissioned projects in Akwa Ibom before proceeding to Port Harcourt.
CDA News Nigeria gathered that the Rivers stop is meant to let the president “engage with political stakeholders, party members, and supporters,” with an emphasis on unity and political stability, according to the statement.
The Port Harcourt rally follows his Uyo rally on Friday, where he reportedly urged supporters to mobilise voters and collect their permanent voter cards.
Rivers Governor Siminalayi Fubara joined the APC in December 2025, strengthening the party’s presence in the South-South. Akwa Ibom Governor Umo Eno defected to the party in June 2025.
The Presidency has not published the venue, start time or speaker list for the Port Harcourt rally. CDA News Nigeria will update this report with the president’s remarks.
