Thousands Rally in Support of Hashim After Accord Primary Election

On Thursday, thousands of supporters of Accord Party presidential candidate Gbenga Olawepo‑Hashim gathered in Dawaki, Abuja, to show solidarity after the party’s presidential primary concluded.

The crowd, drawn from across the Federal Capital Territory, welcomed Hashim as he met with party members to thank them for mobilising and participating in the primary held on May 31, 2026.

Hashim told the assembly that the turnout demonstrated a growing grassroots enthusiasm for what he described as a “people‑driven political movement” focused on the aspirations of ordinary Nigerians.

He said the meeting was mainly to thank supporters for their commitment, solidarity and active involvement in the Accord Party’s internal democratic process.

According to Hashim, the large turnout and continued engagement reflect a shared desire for improved governance, greater economic opportunities and national renewal.

He praised Accord Party members in the FCT for their unwavering support, noting that their dedication has strengthened his resolve to work toward a better Nigeria ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Political observers say the demonstration of support signals early signs of mobilisation among emerging opposition figures as parties begin consolidating their structures ahead of the next electoral cycle.
