Wadada Named APC Consensus Candidate for Nasarawa

Senator Aliyu Wadada, representing Nasarawa West, has been confirmed as the All Progressives Congress (APC) consensus governorship candidate for Nasarawa State following a meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa in Abuja. This development comes after Governor Abdullahi Sule publicly endorsed Wadada as his preferred successor in a social media announcement.

Sule's decision was made after extensive consultations with stakeholders both within and outside the state, which involved narrowing down three aspirants deemed capable of winning the upcoming elections. The final decision to support Senator Wadada was reached after thorough discussions, indicating a strategic move by the APC as they prepare for the 2027 elections.
