The National Youth Leader of the APC, Hon. Dayo Israel, has inaugurated the Rivers State chapter of the Jagaban Movement, a national grassroots youth mobilization unit structured into regions, states, LGAs, Wards, and Polling Units, with the objective of mobilizing young voters for Bola Tinubu and other candidates of the party in the general elections.

The event took place in Port Harcourt on Wednesday against the background of Wike’s reported decision to throw his weight behind the APC presidential candidate, a momentous decision predicted to help Tinubu’s ambition in Rivers State and the South-South region where the governor commands great influence and power.

Israel, who since the inauguration of the APC National Youth Wing Campaign Council last month in Kaduna State, has continued his tour of the country to flag-off local youth mobilization efforts organized under the Jagaban Movement, urged members of the Rivers State chapter to prove their mettle and ensure that the party wins the state.

Dismissing reports and speculation about the health of the party’s presidential candidate, he claimed that the former Lagos governor boasts of a work rate better than another candidate in the election, with daily trips to different parts of the country to provide insight into his governance manifesto alongside other meetings with important stakeholders where sector-focused issues are deliberated.

He charged them to study the candidate’s manifesto and use the knowledge of same to win the hearts of young people in the nooks and crannies of the state. He also encouraged the smart and effective utilization of tools made available to them, including the Canvasser’s Record Sheet, a data-gathering tool designed to help the party prosecute the election with up-to-date data on local voting trends and demographics.

The event was attended by Tonye Cole, the governorship candidate of the party who seized the moment to debunk notions of a rumored deal struck with the opposition to aid his emergence at the polls.

He reiterated his total and enduring loyalty to Tinubu and the APC, while providing assurances of meaningful support to the state’s chapter of the Jagaban Movement to attain success in its important youth mobilization quest.

Other party leaders, including members of the state’s executives, were also present at the event, with each of them taking turns to pledge their allegiance to the cause and express optimism of victory come the 25th of February.
