Uba Sani, Kaduna state governor, says he has no preferred candidates amongst all the aspirants for elective positions during the upcoming party primaries.
Sani spoke on Tuesday night during the breaking of Ramadan
fast with members of Kaduna state house of assembly.
He vowed not to interfere with the primaries or selection
process that will produce APC flag bearers in Kaduna state, but promised to
support candidates that were chosen by the people.
“My advice to every aspirant who is seeking for any office
is to get the support of party members,” he said.
”I have no anointed candidates in the coming primaries that
will take place between April and May this year. I will abide by what the
people decide.”
The governor said President Bola Tinubu is his only
candidate and he promised to ensure his re-election in the 2027 election.
He urged aspirants who lose out in the primaries to resist
the urge of working against the party because doing so will be
counterproductive.
He recalled when he was earlier “shortchanged” in the APC
congress during the previous administration, whereby most of his supporters
were prevented from clinching party positions.
“At that time, some people wanted me to work against the
party. I told them that I wouldn’t work against the house that I helped to
build. As God will have it, I’m the Governor today,” he said.
“I advise everyone party member to work for the victory of
APC. The opposition will try to instigate some members, especially after the
primaries because our party is the only party that is still standing. We should
resist this temptation. The party belongs to all of us.”
The governor warned that the opposition would use the
security challenges in the country to campaign against APC in the 2027 general
elections.
He pointed out that the security situation in kaduna state
has been improving since the present administration assumed office in 2023,
adding that there is still room for improvement.
Sani said his administration has reopened 535 schools and 85
health facilities that were closed due to insecurity since he assumed office in
2023.
