Amaechi 2027 presidential posters surface across Bauchi streets

Posters projecting former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi, as a presidential candidate for the 2027 general election have surfaced across major streets in Bauchi State.

The posters, branded with the inscription, “Amaechi for President 2027: Move Nigeria Forward,” alongside the logo of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), were spotted at strategic locations within the Bauchi metropolis.

Amaechi, who holds the traditional title of Dan Amanar Kasar Hausa of Daura, previously served as Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Governor of Rivers State, and later Minister of Transportation.

The campaign posters were mounted on electric poles, billboards and major roundabouts across the state capital, drawing the attention of residents and commuters.

Some of the areas where the posters were sighted include Ahmadu Bello Way, Awalah Roundabout, Wunti Flyover, Jos Road Roundabout, Bauchi Club axis, Nasarawa Gate Roundabout and Emir’s Palace Roundabout.

The posters were also displayed along Railway Road, Sabon Titin Karofi and Kofar Dumi streets, among other locations.

The posters attracted considerable public attention, with several motorists and pedestrians slowing down to observe them, particularly around Awalah Roundabout.

DAILY POST reports that the former Rivers governor, Amaechi, contested the presidential primary of the All Progressives Congress, where he emerged runner-up to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2022.
