The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Jigawa State announces leadership for its 2027 general election campaign. Multiple outlets report that Governor Umar Namadi is named to chair the campaign structure, with two former governors appointed as deputy chairmen.
The appointments are presented as part of the party’s wider preparations ahead of the 2027 elections. Daily Post Nigeria says the appointments are contained in a statement signed by the state APC chairman, Hon. Ahmed Garba. Premium Times Nigeria adds process details, saying the council follows consultations across the state’s three senatorial districts and approval by the APC State Working Committee.
Across outlets, the named leadership is consistent, including the involvement of former governors Ali Sa’adu Birnin Kudu and Ibrahim Saminu Turaki alongside Namadi. Differences mainly involve how much they emphasize the formal statement and signer (Daily Post Nigeria) versus the consultation and internal approval steps (Premium Times Nigeria), while Vanguard focuses on the structure and appointments.
