The Gbenga Hashim Solidarity Movement has intensified its grassroots mobilisation in Northern Nigeria, with a renewed push in Kaduna State as part of preparations ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Speaking during an engagement with local mobilising groups in Kaduna, the National Coordinator of the movement, Mr. Abdurazak Hamzat, reaffirmed the group’s commitment to what he described as safeguarding Nigeria through sustained grassroots mobilisation across the country.
Hamzat said the Kaduna visit was part of the movement’s ongoing nationwide consultations aimed at assessing state-level activities and encouraging members to remain focused despite the prevailing political climate.
He disclosed that the Gbenga Hashim Solidarity Movement has established several mobilising groups across the federation, noting that Kaduna State alone hosts four different groups spread across various local government areas.
According to him, the movement operates through multiple solidarity structures, all united by a shared national objective of promoting good governance and national renewal.
“Our message to Nigerians as we approach the 2027 general elections is clear: citizens must actively safeguard the country from misrule and misgovernance,” Hamzat said, adding that the movement remains resolute in mobilising Nigerians nationwide.
Also speaking, the Chief of Staff to Dr. Gbenga Hashim, Mr. Kamal Sani, described the movement as strong, focused and divinely guided. He expressed optimism that, given the calibre of individuals involved and what he described as divine support, the movement would continue to grow and make a positive impact on Nigeria’s future.
Sani portrayed Dr. Gbenga Hashim as a unifier and bridge-builder, citing his extensive background in politics and business, as well as his long-standing commitment to national development. He noted that Hashim’s cross-religious and regional relationships place him in a unique position to foster unity and collective progress across the country.
In his remarks, the Kaduna State Coordinator of the Gbenga Hashim Solidarity Movement, Comrade Ahmed Sabo Jimeta, commended the dedication of grassroots mobilisers working to advance the objectives of the movement. He expressed appreciation to supporters, particularly women and men actively involved in its activities, describing their efforts as critical to sustaining the movement’s momentum.
Jimeta said the level of commitment demonstrated by members across Kaduna State reflects a strong sense of unity and purpose, reaffirming the movement’s resolve to continue supporting Dr. Gbenga Hashim’s presidential aspiration ahead of the 2027 elections.
In a related development, another pro-Gbenga Hashim group, led by Muhammad Aliyu Kacham, the GOH Front, called on coordinators across the 23 local government areas of Kaduna State to intensify mobilisation efforts towards the actualisation of Hashim’s presidential ambition.
The one-day event attracted hundreds of supporters who paid glowing tributes to the Kebbi-born politician and global businessman.
Dignitaries in attendance included Dr. Ibrahim Umar, Alhaji Muhammad Zanna, Alhaji Muhammad Danmaliki and Amina Ibrahim, among others.
