The rally moved from the Unity Fountain and ended at the Eagle Square. 

Several support groups were present at the rally. Notable amongst the support groups was the TPAND

Speaking exclusively to our correspondent, The Director General, TPAND, Engr. Yusuf Hussain posited that Asiwaju Tinubu had a track record and leadership capacity above all the other candidates aspiring to be president of Nigeria in the February 2023 election.

He asserted that his support group, TPAND, was ready to mobilize grassroot support to enable Tinubu and APC to win massively in FCT in particular and Nigeria in general.

Hussain called on the youths to vote for the Tinubu/Shetima ticket considering that they both had youth friendly policies.

He noted that the turn out of the mammoth crowd showed that Asiwaju Tinubu had tremendous support in the Federal Capital Territory.

He maintained that the support groups that were present at the rally were grassroot based and had the capacity to wield grassroots support which would translate to a large number of votes for Tinubu/Shetima.
