Mahmud Sadi Buba Secures APC Clearance for House Race
Mahmud Sadi Buba, a 30-year-old individual living with dwarfism, has successfully passed the screening exercise conducted by the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the upcoming elections. Buba is contesting for a House of Representatives seat representing the Sabon Gari Federal Constituency in Kaduna State.
He is popularly known as "Abin Al Ajabin Zazzau" and appeared before the party's screening panel as part of the APC's internal process for aspirants seeking elective office. The screening exercise is a typical requirement for candidates to examine their eligibility, party membership status, loyalty, integrity, and statutory qualifications.
Buba's candidacy has drawn public attention as he pursues elective office despite physical challenges, symbolizing inclusivity and equal opportunity in politics. His emergence reflects the growing participation of persons living with disabilities in Nigeria's democratic process.
The APC is expected to conclude its internal processes in the coming week as aspirants intensify consultations ahead of the primaries.
