The flagship role

On the board of the City Boy Movement

In September 2026 the City Boy Movement — the youth-driven civic platform founded in 2022, with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as Grand Patron and Seyi Tinubu as Patron — named Ahmad Abdul’aziz Yari to its board, as part of a reorganisation aimed at deepening the movement’s reach among young Nigerians ahead of the 2027 general elections.

He joins a national command that has already sworn in its National Working Committee, ratified state and diaspora directors, and set a target of ten million votes.

Each package held ten staples — rice, spaghetti, macaroni, sugar, salt, seasoning, Milo, milk, cooking oil and tomato paste — handed out without regard to political or social difference.
