Ahead of the 2027 general elections, several celebrities and socialites are publicly aligning with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s second term.

President Tinubu already has 30 governors in his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Prior to the 2023 presidential election, the former Governor of Lagos State received similar overwhelming support from people in the entertainment and sport industries.

Many celebrities, the likes of Seyi Law, Eniola Badmus, Toyin Abraham, Olaiye Igwe and Lege Miami all threw their weights behind him.

As countdown to the 2027 presidential election begins, socialites and celebrities, including Obinna Iyiegbu, aka Obi Cubana, Pascal Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, Cletus Oragwa, also known as Zenco, Yul Edochie, Emmanuel Philip, Bolanle Ninilowo, Zack Orji, Adeniyi Johnson and of course, Seyi Law, have publicly declared their supports for Tinubu.

They have all united under the City Boys Movement, rallying support for Tinubu.

The City Boys Movement is a political association championed by Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Already, Obi Cubana has been made the South-East Zonal Coordinator of the City Boys Movement, with others emerging in different zones, states, local governments and wards, with a clear political responsibility- to mobilise young Igbo entrepreneurs who believe in the Tinubu project, galvanise their support, and encourage them to align strategically behind President Tinubu’s re-election bid in 2027.
