PRESS RELEASE

JIGAWA PDP HAILS APPEAL COURT CONFIRMATION OF LEADERSHIP RIGHTS, CALLS FOR IMMEDIATE PARTY RECONCILIATION

📢 A Judicial Affirmation of Truth!

The leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Jigawa State wishes to formally congratulate our esteemed leader, His Excellency, Alhaji Sule Lamido, CON, following the decisive ruling by the Court of Appeal. We celebrate the appellate court for affirming the judgment of the Federal High Court, which solidifies His Excellency's right to contest for the national chairmanship of our great party.

This affirmation is a testament to the justice of our cause and a rebuke to the attempts by the Tanimu Turaki-led group to derail the collective will of the people. We commend our leader's patience, grace, and unwavering commitment to the rule of law throughout this legal process. This victory belongs to the entire PDP family in Jigawa State.

🤝 An Olive Branch: Time to Rebuild

Now that the courts have spoken, the path forward is clear. It is time for politics, not litigation.

We make a passionate appeal to our respected leaders from both sides of this unfortunate conflict: we must, as a matter of urgency, sheathe our swords. Let us set aside our differences and sit down together. The task of restoring the PDP to winning ways is too great for a divided house. We must look inward and find a lasting political solution that heals our wounds and strengthens our party for the challenges ahead.

🕊️ To All PDP Faithful: Stay United

To our loyal, steadfast members across all 27 Local Government Areas of Jigawa State, we urge you to remain calm and resolute. Do not be swayed by agents of division.

Be assured, our leader, HE Sule Lamido, alongside other senior stakeholders, is actively working towards an inclusive political solution. We are committed to exploring every available option to ensure that every single follower is carried along and given a sense of belonging.

With this affirmed legal standing and the wisdom of our elders, we guarantee that we will participate fully, vigorously, and victoriously in the 2027 general election cycle, because various options are open and available for out leaders to decide: we belive they will direct us with wisdom.

Signed,

🎉 Happy World Teachers’ Day from Jigawa State PDP! 🍎📚

Today, we join the global community in celebrating the tireless dedication, wisdom, and compassion of our teachers — the true architects of our future. In every classroom across Jigawa, teachers are shaping minds, building character, and laying the foundation for a more prosperous and enlightened society.

👩‍🏫 Teachers are the backbone of development. From rural schools to urban centers, their impact echoes in every sector — education, health, agriculture, and governance. Without their guidance, there can be no sustainable progress.

🛠️ Under previous PDP administrations in Jigawa, we made significant strides in improving education:

• Recruitment and training of qualified teachers
• Upgrading school infrastructure
• Expanding access to learning materials
• Promoting inclusive education for girls and marginalized communities

We remain committed to reviving and expanding these gains. The PDP believes that investing in teachers is investing in Jigawa’s future. We will continue to champion policies that uplift educators, enhance learning environments, and ensure every child receives quality education.

🙏 To every teacher in Jigawa — thank you. Your work matters. Your legacy lives on in every student you inspire.

Signed
Babandi Gumel
State Chairman
