The All Progressives Congress Elders Committee in Jigawa State has endorsed President Bola Tinubu and Governor Umar Namadi for re-election. The decision was announced Sunday after a caucus meeting held at the Government House in Dutse, chaired by Governor Namadi. The elders resolved to purchase nomination forms for both leaders when the party begins sales. Faruk Adamu, speaking for the Jigawa Central elders, said the endorsement followed a unanimous review of the leaders' performance over the past three years. He cited "giant strides" in development and governance as the basis for their support. Adamu stated the form purchase reflects the elders' confidence in Tinubu and Namadi's ability to deliver results. Governor Namadi urged APC members to remain united ahead of the general elections. He called for collective effort to secure victory for the party at all levels. The governor described the endorsement as a morale boost for the APC in Jigawa. The meeting included party stakeholders and elders from the state's three senatorial districts.
The APC elders claim their endorsement of Tinubu and Namadi followed a review of three years of performance, yet no specific project or policy was cited to justify the "giant strides" mentioned. The praise rests entirely on vague assertions, leaving Jigawa residents to wonder what measurable progress qualifies for re-election. If development is evident, it should be visible beyond a press statement. Without concrete evidence, the endorsement risks appearing ceremonial rather than evaluative.
