President Bola Tinubu arrived in Kaduna State for an All Progressives Congress campaign flag-off. The event took place under tight security as Tinubu seeks re-election in 2027. Governor Sani declared Kaduna will support Tinubu and vote for him in recognition of his achievements.
The governor emphasized the need for unity and peaceful engagement with the public ahead of Saturday’s rally. His statement contrasts with earlier reports that the Plateau Community in Kaduna had pledged support for Governor Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang’s re-election. This shift highlights evolving political alliances in the state.
In 2023, Kaduna voters supported Mutfwang, but this year the state is expected to back Tinubu. The governor’s declaration comes as the APC prepares for its presidential campaign. The change reflects broader political realignments ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The shift in support underscores the competitive nature of the upcoming polls. Tinubu’s campaign in Kaduna is seen as a key step in his re-election bid. The state’s political landscape continues to evolve, with different communities aligning with varying candidates.
This development marks a significant moment in the lead-up to the 2027 elections, as political support in Kaduna State appears to be shifting toward Tinubu. The outcome could influence the national election dynamics.
