Elder statesman Ambassador Haruna Ginsau described Babandede as a loyal APC member and affirmed that the party is proud of his commitment. The Ward Chairman also commended Babandede for his empathetic and genuine approach to party affairs.
Babandede later proceeded to the APC Local Government Secretariat in Hadejia, where he formally reaffirmed his loyalty to the party and reiterated his support for President Tinubu, Governor Namadi, and APC as his party of choice.
The APC Chairman in Hadejia Local Government described Babandede as a valued son of the soil, highlighting the party’s appreciation for his contributions to its growth and progress.
What was planned as a brief registration exercise extended to over five hours as supporters came out in large numbers from across Jigawa State, particularly from the Jigawa North East Senatorial District.
