Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani, has expressed confidence that President Bola Tinubu will secure more votes from northern Nigeria in the 2027 general election than he received in the 2023 presidential poll.
The governor made the assertion during an interview on Tuesday, attributing his optimism to what he described as the Tinubu administration’s developmental achievements across the northern region.
According to Sani, voters in the North will base their decision on the president’s performance in office rather than religious, ethnic or tribal sentiments.
He also rejected suggestions that the 2027 election would amount to a contest between the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and Nigerians, describing the claim as an oversimplification of the political landscape.
The governor maintained that President Tinubu has delivered more development projects to northern Nigeria than any previous administration, insisting that available data and statistics support his position.
He further dismissed predictions that the North would turn against Tinubu’s re-election bid.
“I can tell you categorically, as the governor of Kaduna State, that Tinubu will get more votes in 2027 than he got in 2023. The North will massively vote for him,” Sani said.
