Committees constituted for the rally

To ensure the event runs smoothly, various committees were set up to handle specific responsibilities, including mobilisation, logistics, media, publicity, security, and transportation.

Abia State APC chairman and state coordinator of the Presidential Campaign Council, Hon.

The November 16 rally is seen as a major step in the party's efforts to consolidate support for Tinubu's re-election across the South-East.
