The Nasarawa State APC has officially declared its support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Abdullahi Sule. During a briefing in Lafia, State Chairman Aliyu Bello praised the President’s national reforms and formally endorsed him for a second term in 2027.
The party also highlighted Governor Sule’s success in building local infrastructure and improving the state’s economy.
In a key move for the state’s political future, the party endorsed Senator Ahmed Aliyu Wadada as Governor Sule’s preferred successor. Leadership described the choice of Wadada as a strategic decision meant to keep the state stable and continue the current administration's progress. This endorsement sets a clear path for the party’s transition of power.
Despite naming a preferred candidate, Chairman Bello promised that the upcoming primary elections will be completely transparent and fair. He assured all other aspirants that the party will follow strict legal guidelines to provide a level playing field for everyone. This commitment aims to uphold internal democracy while allowing any qualified member the chance to contest.
Finally, the APC leadership dismissed rumors of internal division or forced candidates, calling such reports misleading. The chairman urged all party members to remain peaceful and united as they prepare for the 2027 elections. By focusing on collective goals, the party hopes to maintain its strength and ensure a smooth democratic process for the people of Nasarawa.
