Katsina State Governor Dikko Radda says Katsina will support President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027. Multiple outlets report that Radda made the pledge in Katsina, addressing the president and reiterating that the state remains aligned with the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The reports describe Radda as positioning Katsina as an APC stronghold, saying elected officials and party structures across the state will back Tinubu. Nigerian Eye adds that Radda cites the party’s presence in the state’s 34 local government areas and 361 wards. In that account, he also links the Tinubu administration’s reforms to increased financial resources for state and local governments, which he says enables investment in infrastructure and social services.

Across the coverage, the core angle is consistent: Radda publicly assures continued political support for Tinubu ahead of the 2027 general elections, while calling for constructive engagement by political actors as campaigning approaches.
