Abdulsalam Kachallah Gains Zulum's Support for Federal Seat

Abdulsalam Kachallah is positioning himself for a federal role, receiving significant backing from Borno State Governor Babagana Zulum. Kachallah, who previously served as the Executive Chairman of the Borno State Rural Electrification Board, has a strong focus on addressing power outages in Maiduguri and is committed to energy sector reforms.

An engineering graduate from the University of Maiduguri, he brings technical expertise to the political landscape, which is often dominated by traditional politicians. Kachallah is determined to represent the Maiduguri Metropolitan Council in the upcoming House of Representatives elections, aiming to provide stronger representation for grassroots communities.

He is the son of the late Mala Kachallah, who served as Governor of Borno State from 1999 to 2003, and he seeks to carve out his own identity while maintaining a close connection with the people of Maiduguri. Zulum's endorsement is expected to bolster Kachallah's campaign as he prepares for the elections.
