Alhaji Isa Gerawa, a prominent chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and chairman of Gerawa Group of Companies, has expressed confidence that Jigawa State will remain under APC control in the 2027 elections. Speaking to party supporters at Ringim Government House, Gerawa cited the APC’s development achievements in the state since its inception as a key factor in its enduring popularity.

According to Gerawa, the state has become a model for its peers, with many seeking to replicate its successes. This, he claimed, has weakened the opposition parties, including the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), and African Democratic Congress (ADC), as thousands of their supporters defect to the APC. Gerawa cautioned opposition parties to “reconsider their efforts,” as the state firmly belongs to the APC.

Gerawa pledged to work tirelessly to support the administration of Governor Umar Namadi and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the 2027 elections. He emphasized the importance of party members giving their full support to ensure the APC’s continued achievements and victory in 2027. The chieftain’s statement underscores the APC’s commitment to maintaining its stronghold in Jigawa State.

The APC’s control of Jigawa State has been marked by significant development projects and initiatives, which have contributed to its widespread support among the populace. As the 2027 elections approach, the party is likely to face challenges from opposition parties seeking to gain ground. However, Gerawa’s confidence in the APC’s prospects suggests that the party is well-positioned to maintain its control of the state.

The outcome of the 2027 elections will have significant implications for Jigawa State and its inhabitants. As the political landscape continues to evolve, the APC’s ability to deliver on its promises and address the needs of its constituents will be crucial in determining its success. With Gerawa’s pledge to support the party’s efforts, the APC appears poised to build on its achievements and consolidate its position in the state.
