The PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, backed by former militant leader Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, has announced plans to extend its grassroots mobilisation campaign to eight additional states as political activities ahead of the 2027 general election gather momentum.
The movement said its latest mobilisation tour would take place between 9 and 14 November, covering Enugu, Cross River, Bayelsa, Zamfara, Jigawa, Anambra, Kebbi and Abia states.
The planned engagements will take the campaign across the South-East, South-South and North-West regions in what appears to be an effort to broaden support for President Bola Tinubu ahead of the next presidential election.
According to the programme released by the movement, the tour will commence on Monday with activities scheduled in Enugu and Cross River states.
Other states will be visited during the six-day exercise as the group intensifies its door-to-door mobilisation strategy.
The initiative is expected to involve grassroots engagements and political mobilisation aimed at strengthening the movement’s presence across different parts of the country.
Tompolo, whose involvement has attracted attention within Nigeria’s political landscape, is the convener of the movement, which uses the acronym PBAT in reference to President Tinubu.
The latest expansion comes amid increasing political manoeuvring and coalition-building ahead of the 2027 general election, with political groups and supporters of various parties stepping up efforts to consolidate their influence.
However, the movement has yet to disclose the expected turnout or the number of supporters it hopes to mobilise during the latest phase of its nationwide campaign.
