The Grassroots Mobilisation for Tinubu (GMT), a group within the All Progressives Congress (APC) established to mobilise support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has commenced mobilisation and awareness to pave way for massive votes for Tinubu and all APC candidates in the 2027 general elections, reports thegazellenews.com
The group which has grown in leaps and bounds with state chapters such as Ogun, Oyo, Ondo, Delta, Kaduna, Taraba and Adamawa among others already operating in full swing.
On Saturday, 6 September, 2025, GMT organised a one-day seminar for the directors of its various directorates.
According to the Director General of the group, Honourable Adebisi Abdur Rahman Yusuf, the aim of the seminar is to train the directors on the aims and objectives of the group and its modus operandi.
“Our aim is to mobilise millions of votes for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and in Lagos alone, we are looking at mobilising for five million votes for our dear President. This requires dedication, hard work and commitment.
“The aim of this seminar therefore is to train our directors on what is expected of them. This is onerous assignment for us and we can only achieve our aim by being dedicated and hardworking,” Yusuf, a three time member of the Lagos State House of Assembly said.
According to Yusuf, GMT is spreading very fast, “we are fully present in Ogun, Oyo, Ondo, Kogi, Adamawa, Taraba and Kaduna states. We are fully prepared and we have commenced work already”.
The Chief of Staff to the state Governor, Tayo Ayinde, took participants through the process by which victory was achieved in the past.
“I was present and involved since the time of Asiwaju as Governor. Dedication and commitment are the major ingredients and we must be diligent. Humility is also important and our approach to people should be humble and humane,” he said.
The Director of Administration of GMT and two-time member of the state House of Assembly, Honourable Lanre Ogunyemi, took the directors through the work ethics and structure of the organisation.
Ogunyemi, also a two-time Secretary of the party in the state, lectured the participants on the aims and objectives of the organisation, the structure and chain of authority as well as the functions of each directorate.
He also took them through how they can work together and attain synergy that will not only make their work easier but also achieve the aims and objectives of the organisation.
“We have to work together, be united in our purpose. It’s important that we know what are supposed to do hence the need for this seminar which aims to intimate us with necessary steps needed to achieve our aims,” Ogunyemi said.
The seminar was attended by all the directors and deputy directors in Lagos, national headquarters and directors from Ondo, Oyo, Delta and Ogun States among others.
