The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chapter in Bayelsa State declared on Tuesday that its umbrella political platform, the National Rainbow Coalition, remains the decisive force guaranteed to secure electoral victory for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the state during the 2027 general elections.
​Addressing journalists during a morning press briefing held at 11:00 AM on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, at the PDP State Secretariat in Yenagoa, key coalition spokesperson and Bayelsa PDP chieftain Chief George Turnah disclosed that the coalition has formally committed to mobilizing 300,000 votes for the President across all 105 wards in the state.
​In a statement released through his media aide, Kevin Loveday-Egbo, Chief Turnah explained that the National Rainbow Coalition serves as the primary mobilization vehicle to engage undecided voters and highlight the developmental milestones recorded under the current Federal Government.
He noted that the coalition’s ambitious campaign strategy involves taking the re-election message directly to grassroots communities in all eight local government areas of Bayelsa State.
​Turnah issued a direct challenge to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state, tasking them to deliver an additional 500,000 votes. According to the coalition leader, such a joint effort would push the President’s total tally in Bayelsa State to 800,000 votes out of the state’s 1.15 million collected Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs).
The coalition reiterated that its robust grassroots presence across every ward and local community renders its support essential to ensuring the President’s victory in the upcoming polls.
