The lawmakers, after extensive deliberations and consultations, have resolved to back Radda for a second term, citing his exceptional leadership and numerous achievements in various sectors.
According to Speaker Yahaya-Daura, the decision to endorse Radda was not taken lightly. It was a product of careful assessment, grassroots feedback, and their collective belief in the governor’s vision.

Under Radda’s leadership, the state has undergone a remarkable agricultural transformation, reclaiming its position as the agricultural powerhouse of Northern Nigeria.
The healthcare and education sectors have also witnessed significant improvements. The governor’s visionary leadership has led to the rehabilitation of over 200 schools across the state, among other achievements. These accomplishments have given the lawmakers the confidence and trust to endorse Radda for a second term. As a testament to their full support, they have resolved to purchase his nomination form when the time comes in 2027.
Speaker Yahaya-Daura expressed his appreciation for the media’s role in documenting the state’s progress and highlighted the unity and pride among the lawmakers. He emphasized that their decision was a result of Radda’s exceptional commitment to securing the state and his vision for its future. With this endorsement, Radda’s re-election bid has gained significant momentum, reflecting the lawmakers’ confidence in his ability to continue leading the state towards progress and development.
