Abubakar Malami, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) governorship candidate in Kebbi State, has officially named Musa Zagi as his running mate for the 2027 governorship election. The announcement was made public on Friday through a statement released by the party’s Publicity Secretary, Engr. Abubakar Atiku Musa. The appointment marks a key step in the ADC’s preparations for the upcoming general elections, as the party finalizes its leadership team for the state’s top political race.
The statement confirmed that Zagi’s nomination was approved by Malami himself, underscoring the candidate’s commitment to building a strong and cohesive ticket. The ADC leadership expressed confidence in Zagi’s capacity to serve effectively as deputy governor should they win the election. The party highlighted Zagi’s experience and dedication as qualities that align with their vision for development and good governance in Kebbi State.
In addition to congratulating Zagi, the ADC extended its felicitations to all other candidates fielded by the party for various elective positions in the 2027 general elections. The party emphasized the importance of unity among members and supporters, urging them to work together to achieve electoral success. The message was clear: solidarity and collective effort will be crucial in the months leading up to the polls.
The ADC also called on the people of Kebbi State to support their candidates and ensure that the elections are conducted in a peaceful, free, and fair manner. The party stressed the need for civic responsibility and urged voters to participate actively in the democratic process. By fostering a culture of peaceful competition, the ADC aims to contribute to a stable and inclusive political environment in the state.
This development comes as political parties across Nigeria begin to solidify their structures and campaign strategies ahead of the 2027 elections. The ADC’s announcement of its governorship ticket reflects its growing presence in Kebbi State politics and its ambition to challenge the status quo. As the election cycle approaches, the party’s ability to mobilize support and deliver on its promises will be closely watched by voters and political observers alike.
The naming of Musa Zagi as deputy governorship candidate is expected to strengthen the ADC’s campaign in Kebbi State, particularly in areas where his background and experience resonate with local communities. With the election just over a year away, the party’s next steps will likely focus on grassroots engagement, policy articulation, and building broader coalitions.
