The PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, led by its Grand Patron, High Chief Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, has strengthened its presence in Ekiti State with the deployment of 25 campaign vehicles and the inauguration of its state executives in Ado-Ekiti on Thursday, October 29, 2026.
Represented by the Managing Director of Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited, High Chief Kestin Pondi, Tompolo said the vehicles would enhance the movement’s operations across the state’s 16 local government areas, wards and polling units ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Pondi described the initiative as part of the movement’s nationwide efforts to engage communities directly, communicate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s policies and strengthen political participation at the grassroots.
He also highlighted the administration’s economic reforms, particularly the removal of petrol subsidy, which he said had improved state governments’ financial capacity to meet obligations and undertake development projects.
Speaking at the inauguration, Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, commended President Tinubu for his support towards the state’s development and expressed confidence in his electoral prospects.
The governor challenged political stakeholders to deliver at least 80 per cent of Ekiti’s votes to Tinubu in 2027, stressing that the margin of victory should be the priority.
Earlier, the National Coordinator of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, Sunday Asuku, urged the newly inaugurated executives to intensify community engagement and ensure that the movement’s activities reach residents across the state.
The Ekiti inauguration marks another phase in the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement’s nationwide expansion, with campaign vehicles and operational structures being established across states in preparation for the 2027 presidential election.
