The various political groups and coalitions which recently formed the North/South Voter-to-Voter Movement for Tinubu/Shettima in the 2023 presidential election have said they have intensified their campaign strategy.

He said after their careful study, it was clear that the APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, is a pan-Nigerian candidate who has the interest of all Nigerians at heart judging from his antecedents as governor of Lagos State where he carried along and empowered all sections of Nigerians residing, working and doing businesses in the state.

Zazzaga expressed gladness over the safe return of Tinubu back to the country after his recent visit abroad, adding that his readiness to commence his campaigns is obvious and that the APC is equally ready.

He commended the Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council who is also the governor of Plateau State as well as the Northern Governors’ Forum Chairman, Simon Lalong, for recently receiving them at the council Secretariat in Abuja to fine-tune several 2023 strategies. 

He pointed out that among the groups that merged are the Plateau APC Bigwigs, North Central APC Forum, Patriotic Southern Coalition for Good Governance and other pressure, interest and support groups.
