A political pressure group, Bayelsa One Mandate (BOM), has declared its support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027, backing the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement initiated under the patronage of High Chief Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo.

n

The group, in a statement issued in Yenagoa and signed by its Director-General, Claudius Egba, described the large turnout at the launch of the South-South chapter of the movement in Yenagoa on Wednesday as a significant step towards mobilising support for Tinubu ahead of the 2027 presidential election.

n

BOM also commended Governor Douye Diri, his deputy and other political stakeholders for their participation and the large number of supporters who attended the event.

n

Egba, a legal practitioner and grassroots mobiliser, said the group was committed to supporting what he described as the President’s second-term aspiration.

n

“The presence of Bayelsa One Mandate group in such impressive numbers underscores our belief in the transformative policies of President Tinubu,” he said.

n

He added that BOM would work with the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement to mobilise support for Tinubu across Bayelsa State and beyond.

n

“We stand solidly with the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement and call on all well-meaning Bayelsans and Nigerians to join this grassroots campaign for continuity and progress,” Egba said.

n

The movement is designed to intensify grassroots mobilisation through direct engagement with voters across the country.

n

Egba said Governor Diri, who attended the Yenagoa event, urged political actors and supporters to ensure that campaigns ahead of the 2027 elections remained issue-based, inclusive and respectful.

n

He said BOM would continue to mobilise support at the grassroots while advocating policies focused on economic growth, security and infrastructure development.
