President Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential aspirant for the 2027 general elections, has recorded a clean sweep in Mafa Ward of Borno State – the home ward of Governor Babagana Zulum.
The direct primary election was conducted at Mafa Central
Primary School and presided over by the Chairperson of the Presidential Primary
Election Committee, Hajiya Inna Alkali Imam.
Tinubu polled 2,175 votes out of the total number of votes
cast, representing 100% of all valid votes in the ward. Mafa Ward has 2,277
registered party members, and the exercise saw an impressive turnout, with
nearly all registered members participating in the primary.
The other contestant, Stanley Osifo, a businessman and APC
chieftain from Edo State, scored zero votes.
Babagana Umara Zulum, who serves as the Coordinator and
Collation Officer for the presidential primary election in the state, said he
was in Mafa to witness and participate in the exercise.
“I am from Mafa Ward, and that is why I am here to witness
and participate in the exercise. We have two candidates, President Bola Ahmed
Tinubu and Mr Stanley Osifo,” Zulum stated.
Governor Zulum, who also cast his vote, expressed
satisfaction with the conduct of the primary and the enthusiasm of party
faithful.
“So far so good, we have contacted the presidential primary
election for Mafa ward, and I am very impressed with the turnout. We have a
total of about 2,277 registered party members in Mafa ward, out of which 2,175
were accredited for the voting, and all of them voted for President Bola Ahmed
Tinubu, while the other candidate scored zero,” Zulum said.
The APC presidential primary continues across the country,
with final results expected to be announced at a later date.
