Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Jigawa State Governor, Malam Umar Namadi, says the opposition parties in the state are losing relevance and support due to massive developmental projects and people\u2019s-oriented policies of the APC-led administration in the state and the country in general.<\/p>\n

Governor Namadi stated this on Monday while speaking at the APC campaign flag-off for the Garki\/Babura Federal Constituency by-election scheduled to take place on 16th August, 2025.<\/p>\n

Addressing the gathering, Governor Umar Namadi said the present administration has crippled and silenced the opposition parties in the state through laudable developmental projects.<\/p>\n

According to him, \u201cWhat I have seen today on our way from Garki to Babura (APC\u2019s posters and billboards for the coming by-election) is a clear proof to us in Jigawa APC remain the only party of their choice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis Monday I had the privilege of launching the campaign for our party\u2019s candidate, Hon. Rabiu Mukhtar, ahead of the Babura\/Garki Federal Constituency bye-election coming up this Saturday, 16th August, 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe election comes after the passing of our late representative, Hon. Isah Dogon Yaro. It is an opportunity to honour his memory by carrying forward the work of progress and service he stood for,\u201d Gov. Namadi stated.<\/p>\n

Governor Namadi, however, urged all eligible voters in Babura and Garki to turn out in large numbers on Saturday and vote for the APC to build a stronger and more prosperous Jigawa State.<\/p>\n

The APC flag bearer in the upcoming by-election, Hon. Rabiu Muktar, expressed gratitude to Almighty Allah, the Governor, and all stakeholders for the transparent and inclusive process that led to his emergence as the party\u2019s candidate.<\/p>\n

He promised to work closely with the party stakeholders to ensure a resounding victory for the APC in the upcoming by-election.<\/p>\n
