The Minister of Interior, Dr. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, represented by Asiwaju Olumuyiwa Asagunla on Monday presented new 18-seater buses to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu support groups in Ondo State as part of efforts to strengthen grassroots mobilisation and enhance the operational capacity of groups championing the Renewed Hope Agenda across the state.
The buses were presented to two of the leading support groups actively engaged in promoting the achievements of the President and consolidating support for his continued leadership beyond 2027: the Asiwaju Mandate Group (AMG) and the Grassroots Movement for Tinubu (GMT).
Speaking during the presentation, Dr. Tunji-Ojo, noted that the gesture was aimed at encouraging the groups to sustain their mobilisation efforts, deepen grassroots engagement, and continue enlightening the public on the policies and programmes of the Tinubu administration. He commended the dedication and consistency of the groups, describing their efforts as critical to strengthening public participation in governance and ensuring that the message of the Renewed Hope Agenda reaches every community.
Receiving the bus on behalf of the Asiwaju Mandate Group was the Director of Strategy and Communications of the group, Dr. Ayodeji Ologun, who was flanked by members of the executive council of the organisation. Also receiving a bus on behalf of the Grassroots Movement for Tinubu was its Director-General, Hon. Saka Yusuf flanked by his Secretary, Alhaji Yussuff Badmus who attended the presentation with other executives of the movement.
Both leaders expressed appreciation to the Minister for the thoughtful gesture, noting that the buses would greatly enhance their capacity to reach more communities, organise grassroots engagements, and further propagate the achievements and vision of President Tinubu across Ondo State.
Witnessing the presentation and offering prayers for their safe and productive use was Engr. Ade Adetimehin. In his remarks, he commended the Minister for his commitment to strengthening the progressive family in the State and urged the beneficiary groups to make effective use of the buses in advancing the ideals of the party and the Renewed Hope Agenda.
The event was attended by party leaders, members of the support groups, and other stakeholders who described the initiative as a further demonstration of the growing momentum of support for President Tinubu’s administration in Ondo State.
