Baring any last minute change in plans, President Goodluck Jonathan will visit Damaturu, capital of Yobe state, on Thursday.
A source told TheCable that the president would be going there to seek support for his re-election bid, which will be decided on March 28.
Yobe is the only state that Jonathan has not visited since he flagged off his current electioneering campaign.
An earlier rally scheduled for February 2 was cancelled over fears of insecurity.
The advanced team of Jonathan delegation had already arrived in Damaturu for the event before they were informed that it had been shelved.
Yobe, which shares border with Borno, is one of the states worst affected by the insurgency in the northeast.
