The Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje was the chief Host while the Secretary of the APC Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), James Faleke alongside national leaders and stakeholders were in attendance with hundreds of fans and supporters of Tinubu and Shettima.

The train of the Super Eagles legends tour is expected to move to the South-South State of Akwa Ibom, Cross River and Rivers State.
