ABUJA — The Agaba of Jiwa Chiefdom in the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), Alhaji Idris Musa, has declared support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s second-term aspiration and donated ₦1 million to a pro-Tinubu support group in the Federal Capital Territory.
The donation was made on Wednesday when the FCT Renewed Hope Ambassadors, led by its Coordinator, Hon. Adamu Abdullahi, paid a courtesy visit to the traditional ruler at his palace in Jiwa.
Alhaji Musa commended President Tinubu’s leadership and praised his appointment of Barr. Nyesom Wike as Minister of the FCT. He also lauded the President for selecting Hon. Abdullahi to coordinate the support group in the territory, describing him as “a worthy son.”
The monarch pledged to personally lead mobilization efforts within his chiefdom and beyond to ensure Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.
He urged residents to appreciate what he termed the President’s “inclusive governance and brotherly gestures” toward the people of Abuja, particularly through strategic appointments and development-focused policies.
In his response, Hon. Abdullahi commended the Tinubu administration for its “deliberate and inclusive” approach to governing the FCT, highlighting key appointments, infrastructure projects, and policies aimed at repositioning Abuja.
He also emphasized the important role of traditional institutions in driving sustainable development and sought the Agaba’s permission to engage with tribal chiefs across the chiefdom to promote peace and mobilization.
The visit underscores early grassroots political engagement ahead of the 2027 general elections and highlights the role of traditional rulers in Nigeria’s political mobilization efforts.
