Watch Moment Tinubu Arrives in Jos Ahead of APC Rally as Aide Denies Abuja Convoy Attack

According to a report by the official Facebook page of Nigeria Television Authority on Saturday, November 14, 2026, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu arrived at the General Yakubu Gowon Airport in Jos, Plateau State, ahead of the All Progressives Congress North-Central zonal rally.

The rally forms part of the APC’s preparations for the 2027 general elections and is expected to attract party leaders, supporters and stakeholders from across the region. Tinubu’s arrival in Jos further highlights the importance the ruling party attaches to the North-Central zone.

The President’s trip came amid reports circulating online that some youths had attacked his convoy in Abuja after he attended Juma’at prayers.

However, presidential aide O’tega Ogra dismissed the reports, describing the videos being shared as misleading.

According to Ogra, the footage did not accurately represent what happened in Abuja.

He said available evidence showed youths embracing and cheering the President after the Jumat prayer, contradicting claims that the convoy faced an attack.

The clarification followed social media posts popularly linked to the “Bamayi” narrative, which suggested that the President was booed or confronted by angry youths.

The aide urged members of the public to be cautious and avoid sharing unverified content.

Tinubu’s arrival in Jos is expected to energize APC supporters ahead of the rally, where party leaders will speak on the administration’s policies and campaign plans.

The event will also provide an opportunity for the party to strengthen its structure across Plateau State and other North-Central states.

The APC has continued to mobilize support ahead of the 2027 elections, with rallies serving as platforms to engage voters and showcase the achievements of the Tinubu administration.
