They highlighted road infrastructure, improved workers’ welfare, education opportunities through NELFUND, fertiliser support for farmers, business opportunities, increased allocations to states and local governments, as well as improved wages and allowances for members of the armed forces and other security agencies as evidence of the administration’s impact.

The event was described as a massive outing, with delegates and supporters from across the region participating in discussions centred on Nigeria’s future and the road to the 2027 elections.

Dr Francis Chidozie Okoye, Head of the Media and Publicity Directorate of Relax Tinubu Is Fixing Nigeria, South East Zone, said the Awka town hall marked the beginning of intensified regional mobilisation, declaring that the road to 2027 had begun in earnest as the organisation rallied support for the continuation of President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
