Hamma Saleh Joins APC, Leaving PDP Ahead of 2027 Elections
Alhaji Abdulkadir Hamma Saleh, a former governorship aspirant with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has officially joined the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) as political activities ramp up ahead of the 2027 general elections. He announced his defection through a press release in Gombe, urging his supporters to follow him and support APC candidates at all levels of government.
Hamma Saleh previously competed against Professor Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami for the PDP governorship ticket, a contest that faced legal challenges regarding Pantami's primary victory. His departure from the PDP is viewed as a significant shift, adding pressure to the party as it navigates internal issues in Gombe State.
By aligning with the APC, Hamma Saleh indicates a strategic move to integrate into the ruling party's electoral framework, reflecting a broader trend of political realignments as the 2027 elections approach.
