The procession, accompanied by drummers, flutists and others moved from street-to-street sharing pamphlets showcasing achievements and performance of the retired top cop.

The supporters bearing different placards with inscriptions such as ‘Muje IGP 2027’ (Let’s go IGP 2027), ‘Nasarawa Project MA 2027’, ‘Walin Lafia for Governor of Nasarawa State,’ ‘Tinubu/Rtd IGP Adamu We Know 2027 Join the Moving Train now,’ and several others, openly canvassed support for the candidacy of the Ex-IGP Adamu ahead of the 2027 governorship election.

Addressing newsmen during the rally, Awal Nurain, a member of the support group, accompanied by other members said the mega rally today officially marked the beginning of the mobilisation and campaign for Ex-IGP Adamu by his support group.

While giving the rationale behind the rally, Nurain argued that the candidacy of the Ex-IGP Adamu has been well received by the people of Nasarawa State judging by the show of solidarity from people from different walks of life.

According to him, “As you can see the mega rally today has been massive. It is there for all to see in the massive crowd that came out today to canvass support for the retired IGP Adamu. The love and support from our people is really overwhelming. This shows that he is truly a man of the people and Nasarawa State will be very lucky to have someone like him as governor come 2027.
