Analyst Predicts APC Setback in Zamfara for 2027 Elections
Professor Abubakar Ahmed Abdullahi, a political analyst, stated that the resignation of eight members of the Zamfara State House of Assembly from the All Progressives Congress (APC) could severely hinder the party's prospects in the upcoming 2027 elections. In a statement issued on Monday in Gusau, Abdullahi characterized the lawmakers' departure as a setback that would affect the APC's ability to garner support.
He emphasized that a political party's strength is derived from its committed registered supporters, particularly those at the grassroots level. The resignation, which occurred on Saturday, 3/10/2026, is seen as a major embarrassment for the APC's leadership, especially for Senator Abdulaziz Yari, the Director-General of the Tinubu/Shatima Presidential Campaign Council.
Abdullahi warned that if the situation is not addressed, it could lead to a significant defeat for the APC in Zamfara State during the next election.
