A political support group linked to High Chief Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo, known as Tompolo, has pledged to deliver more than 15 million votes for President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
It further dismissed a reported alliance between Peter Obi and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso as an "unholy alliance" with "nothing to offer Nigeria."
The PBAT Door-to-Door Movement rally held on Saturday around the All Progressives Congress (APC) national secretariat in Abuja to show support for Tinubu’s re-election bid also coincided with the APC presidential primary activities.
National Coordinator Sunday Adekanbi Asuku said the group had mobilised supporters nationwide and was founded by Tompolo to bridge the gap between government and citizens through grassroots mobilisation.
"A vote for PBAT is a vote for the future, a brighter Nigeria and a greater Nigeria.
"The decadence of many decades cannot be fixed in just four years. President Tinubu should be given more time to consolidate on the foundation he has built. He is a reformer and Nigerians must support him," Asuku told journalists.

Asuku said the challenges facing the country on security and the economy were inherited and could not be resolved within one term.
He added that the administration was working to tackle insecurity and that economic policies were beginning to stabilise the country.
"The killings in Nigeria did not start under President Tinubu. It is an inherited problem. However, the government is doing everything possible to combat insecurity and ensure that Nigeria becomes safer," he said.
On the reported alliance between Peter Obi and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso ahead of 2027, Asuku accused opposition figures of being desperate for power and lacking credibility.
"Their coming together is an unholy alliance. They have nothing to offer Nigeria, I can assure you. Ask them of their blueprint, what exactly do they have to offer. They have nothing. We can’t give them their votes," he said.
Asuku said the movement’s nationwide structure would secure "more than 15 million organic votes" for Tinubu in 2027, adding that the president would be "more popular than he was in 2023."
The rally reaffirmed support for Tinubu’s administration and its reform agenda, Asuku said, urging Nigerians to be patient as the government works to address long-standing challenges.
