One Mohammed Umar has begun a 425-kilometre walk from Gombe to Abuja to drum support for Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate for the 2023 election.
31-year-old man Umar, who is a member of TinKas Tinubu/Shettima Support Group, began his solidarity walk on Monday.
He told journalists before starting his walk in Gombe that his action was to show support for Tinubu ahead of the 2023 poll.
He said the support group has been mobilising support in the North-East for the APC to ensure its victory at all levels in the 2023 general election.
He added that Tinubu has the competence and character to manage the affairs of the country.
“Tinubu has picked our own, Sen. Kashim Shettima as his running mate; the best we can do for him is to mobilise support for him to secure massive votes for them from the North-East.
“Tinubu has shown capacity and competence, same for Shettima; so supporting their candidature to ensure victory in 2023 will be for the benefit of Nigerians.
“I am also going to Abuja to personally invite our leaders, Sen Tinubu and Shettima to come and open our campaign office in Gombe State,” he said.
The father of three said that he was prepared for the walk. “I have some malaria drugs with me should I fall sick in the course of the walk to Abuja.
“I have the support of my family in this endeavour; I have the full support and blessings of my family members,” he said.
