2027: Abubakar discontinuous governorship ambition, backs Galadima

….. Donates N100m, Pledges 225,000 Votes Ahead of APC Governorship Primary

By Yagana Ali Yola.

A major political development has emerged within the Adamawa State chapter of the All Progressives Congress as governorship aspirant, Dziyaulhaq Abubakar, officially stepped down from the race in support of fellow aspirant, Ahmed Aminu Tijjani Galadima.

The announcement was made during a gathering of party stakeholders and supporters, where Dziyaulhaq declared his unwavering commitment to party unity and the collective ambition of ensuring victory for the APC in the forthcoming governorship election.

In a dramatic show of loyalty and political strength, the former aspirant also donated the sum of N100 million to support Galadima’s governorship project ahead of the APC primary election.

Speaking at the event, Dziyaulhaq said his decision to withdraw from the contest was driven by the need to build consensus within the party and avoid internal divisions that could weaken the APC’s chances in the state.

He described Ahmed Aminu Tijjani Galadima as a competent and visionary leader capable of repositioning Adamawa State for greater development and inclusive governance.

According to him, “This is not about personal ambition but about the future of our party and the progress of Adamawa State. After wide consultations with my supporters and political associates, 

“I  have decided to collapse my structure and support Ahmed Aminu Tijjani Galadima for the APC governorship ticket.”

The endorsement drew loud cheers from party loyalists and supporters who described the move as a significant boost to Galadima’s growing political momentum across the state.

Dziyaulhaq further pledged to mobilize no fewer than 225,000 votes for Galadima during the APC governorship primary, assuring delegates and stakeholders that his political structure remained solid and fully committed to delivering victory.

Political observers within the party believe the alliance could reshape the dynamics of the APC governorship race, considering Dziyaulhaq’s influence and grassroots support across several local government areas.

Responding to the endorsement, Ahmed Aminu Tijjani Galadima expressed deep appreciation for the gesture, describing it as a demonstration of patriotism, maturity, and commitment to the growth of the APC.

Galadima assured party members that if elected governor, he would run an inclusive administration focused on youth empowerment, economic growth,

infrastructure development, and improved welfare for the people of Adamawa State.

The development is expected to intensify political realignments within the APC as preparations continue for the party’s governorship primary election.
