Yusuf Buhari, son of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari, has chosen the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the Daura/Sandamu/Mai’adua Federal Constituency seat in the 2027 elections.
Yusuf chose the candidate unopposed after a stakeholders meeting held in Katsina on Tuesday unanimously approved him as the party’s candidate.
The consensus agreement was announced by the Chairman of the Daura Zone Consensus Committee, Alhaji Ahmed Dangiwa, former Minister of Housing and Urban Development.
Speaking after Yusuf’s adoption, Mannir Musa, APC Chairman, Mai’adua Local Government, urged party members to accept the outcome in good faith.
“I urge all our people to obey and accept the consensus reached by the committee and stakeholders in good faith. We must all work together for the unity and progress of our party and people,” he said.

He also appealed to Katsina State Governor, Dikko Radda to support candidates who did not get tickets so that they can continue to serve their people.
Musa urged candidates offering tickets through consensus to work for their constituents when elected in the second election.
He named other automatic candidates including Nasir Yahaya for the Daura senatorial seat, and Mustapha Musa for the Mai’adua constituency in the Katsina State House of Assembly.
Yusuf Buhari, in his remarks, thanked party members for the trust reposed in him and promised to provide quality representation, if elected.
