Kaduna ADC Candidate Isa Ashiru Attacked, Parties Unite
Leaders of 15 political parties in Kaduna State condemned the attack on Isa Mohammed Ashiru, the governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC). They described the incident as unacceptable and a direct threat to democratic participation ahead of the 2027 general elections.
This condemnation was articulated in a statement by Abdulwaheed Olayinka Adubi, spokesman for the Ashiru campaign, following a solidarity visit to Ashiru at his residence. The parties involved included Accord, ADP, NRM, APP, PRP, Labour Party (LP), YPP, APGA, AA, BP, ADC, AAC, ZLP, NDP, DLA, and NNPP.
The coalition expressed grave concern over rising political intimidation and violence in the state, stressing that political disagreements should not lead to harassment or threats. They urged political actors to promote peace and respect for the rule of law.
Ashiru thanked the delegation for their support and reaffirmed his commitment to a peaceful, issues-based campaign focused on the development of Kaduna State.
