Former federal lawmaker, Senator Tokunbo Afikuyomi, has been appointed Chairman of the Advisory Council of the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu/Kadiri Obafemi Hamzat Independent Campaign Group (PBAT-KOH ICG) ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
The appointment was ratified at a strategic meeting of the group in Lagos, where political leaders reviewed preparations for the formal take-off of the campaign and mapped out strategies for grassroots mobilisation ahead of the election.
The meeting was attended by prominent members of the group, including Senator Wasiu Sanni Eshinlokun, National Director-General of the PBAT-KOH ICG; Dr Seyi Bamigbade, who represented the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Prince Tajudeen Oluyole Olusi; and Hon. Abdul-Hamed Salawu Dullar, Principal Director-General of the PBAT-KOH ICG in Lagos State.
Addressing the meeting, Eshinlokun said the group was putting in place a robust grassroots structure designed to ensure effective mobilisation across wards and polling units nationwide.

He said the strategy would involve ward-to-ward mobilisation and the deployment of trained polling booth canvassers to galvanise support for President Tinubu’s re-election bid.
Eshinlokun said the group was fully prepared to leverage its extensive network across the country to mobilise millions of voters for the president and secure a decisive victory for the administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda in 2027.
Also speaking, Bamigbade said Afikuyomi’s appointment was in line with the directive and leadership vision of the Board of Trustees Chairman, Prince Olusi.
He said the Advisory Council would provide strategic direction and help coordinate the various support groups and networks backing the president’s re-election into a unified and effective campaign structure.
The development, according to the group, is part of broader efforts to strengthen its organisational structure and deepen grassroots engagement ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
