2027: Sani, Abbas target 2 million votes for APC in Kaduna

Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas, on Tuesday tasked the new office bearers of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state to secure two million votes for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general elections.

They presented the demands to the party’s State Congress in Kaduna, where Isaac Atiku Sankay emerged as consensus leader.

Sankay, born in 1983, is the Special Advisor to the Governor on Peace and Conflict Resolution.

It was adopted after consultation with stakeholders in the 23 local government areas of the state.

His appearance follows weeks of meetings among party leaders seeking unity ahead of the next election cycle.

While addressing delegates, Sani described the congress as a “defining moment” that reflected democratic cohesion and discipline within the party.
