Vice President Kashim Shettima took the stage at an All Progressives Congress presidential campaign rally in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State on Monday, using the platform to champion the administration's record in the South-east region.
Shettima told the crowd that President Bola Tinubu is actively driving both economic and security transformation across the South-east, framing the government's efforts as a direct investment in a region that has long called for more federal attention.
The rally in Abakaliki signals the APC's continued push to deepen its foothold in a part of the country that has historically leaned toward opposition parties. Whether the message lands with voters on the ground is the question everyone is watching.
