Thousands of supporters of Accord Party presidential candidate Gbenga Olawepo-Hashim on Thursday turned out in Dawaki, Abuja, in a show of support following the party’s recently concluded presidential primary.
The supporters, drawn from different parts of the Federal Capital Territory, gathered to receive Hashim as he met with members of the party to express appreciation for their mobilisation and participation during the primary election held on May 31.
Hashim described the turnout as a strong indication of growing grassroots enthusiasm for what he called a ‘people-driven political movement’ anchored on the aspirations of ordinary Nigerians.

Political observers noted that the demonstration added to early signs of mobilisation by emerging opposition figures as parties began consolidating ahead of the next electoral cycle.
