Adamu and Nami Confirmed as Governorship Candidates
On September 5th, 2023, Mohammed Abubakar Adamu was selected as the governorship candidate for the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Nasarawa during a primary election in Lafia, filling the vacancy left by Musa Adamu Angba's resignation. The primary was attended by the SDP's national leadership, including Presidential Candidate Prince Adewole Adebayo, indicating the party's commitment to the region.
Adamu previously contested for the All Progressives Congress (APC) ticket but lost to Senator Ahmed Aliyu Wadada before joining the SDP. In Niger State, Mohammed Mamman Nami was confirmed as the governorship candidate for the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for the 2027 elections after Abubakar Suleiman stepped down in his favor.
This decision was made during a State Executive Committee meeting in Minna, where the PDP's State Chairman, Aliyu Haliru Kaura, announced Nami's unanimous endorsement.
