?Vice President Kashim Shettima has urged northern-based creative industry professionals to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s reelection in 2027, describing it as a key driver for fairness and national unity.
Hosting a delegation of northern performing artists under the banner of "Triple-R For Renewed Hope" at the APC campaign office in Abuja, Shettima assured the region's talent that the administration remains committed to boosting the creative economy through policy support, targeted interventions, and economic opportunities.
He encouraged the group to stay steadfast with the ruling party as the long-term benefits of ongoing federal reforms continue to unfold across various sectors.
?Key APC leaders echoed the Vice President's call, emphasizing the administration's achievements and regional inclusion.
Director-General of the Presidential Campaign Council Sen. Abdulaziz Yari dismissed opposition claims of northern marginalization, asserting that Tinubu’s record justifies a second term.

Similarly, former Katsina Governor Aminu Bello Masari and APC National Chairman Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje commended the delegation's organic support while advocating for improved infrastructure and specialized training to empower upcoming talent in northern Nigeria.
?In response, leaders of Triple-R For Renewed Hope pledged full backing for President Tinubu and all regional APC candidates in the upcoming elections.
Speaking for the group, Alhaji Dauda Kahutu Rarara, alongside National Chairman Alhaji Lawan Ahmad and Secretary Alhaji Ahmad Bifa, noted that their support stems from the administration’s performance.
They also appealed for continued federal intervention to help reorganize northern Nigeria's creative sector, focus on worker welfare, and build essential industry infrastructure.
