Isah Ashiru Wins ADC Governorship Ticket In Kaduna

Ashiru was the PDP governorship candidate in both the 2019 and 2023 governorship elections in Kaduna State.

He lost to former Governor Nasir El-Rufai in 2019 and also finished second behind incumbent Governor Uba Sani in 2023 after polling 719,000 votes.

Meanwhile, some House of Representatives aspirants in Kaduna State under the platform of the African Democratic Congress have rejected the outcome of the party’s primaries, alleging irregularities in the process.

Addressing a news conference, the leader of the aggrieved aspirants, Samaila Makarfi, described the exercise as a sham and “totally unacceptable,” calling for a review of the entire process.
