Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Sandamu Local Government Area of Katsina State have endorsed Yusuf Buhari, son of former Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari, as their preferred candidate for the Daura/Sandamu/Mai’adua Federal Constituency seat.

The decision was reached during a strategic meeting held at the Sandamu Local Government Secretariat, where party leaders, elected officials, and political appointees from across the constituency gathered to deliberate on the party’s direction ahead of future elections.

Speaking after the meeting, the council chairman, Usman Na Lado, described the endorsement as a unified resolution by party stakeholders aimed at strengthening the APC’s electoral prospects. He noted that Yusuf Buhari was chosen based on his perceived competence and growing acceptance within the party structure.

Na Lado also disclosed that the stakeholders used the occasion to reaffirm their support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Katsina State Governor Dikko Umar Radda as the party’s candidates for the 2027 presidential and governorship elections, respectively.

In addition, the gathering endorsed the Speaker of the Katsina State House of Assembly, Nasiru Yahaya Daura, for the Daura Senatorial seat, describing the move as part of early political realignments ahead of the 2027 general elections. Party members were also urged to intensify grassroots mobilisation to consolidate support.

However, sources within the party hinted that Yusuf Buhari’s endorsement may have been influenced by the state governor, alleging that he is the preferred candidate of the current administration.

What does he know about representation?

What experience does he have about life talk more Politics and public service?

Thank God he's going to represent only his people and not mine.

"Thank God" you got the distinction right on this occasion. It is Katsina politics and we should all remove our eyes and mouth from it if the direct Stakeholders, i.e Katsina folks, are happy for Yusuf to represent them. That is democracy.

Still, tomorrow, a neophyte and misfit like him will help make up the numbers of the ayes and nays that determine policies that rub of on me an Igbo. Hiss.

Yusuf Buhari is actually a very nice person, very humble and easy going.... I may not like his late father because of the way he handled the affairs of the nation... But I still believe that he'll make a very good leader... He's not power drunk unlike the Lagos family.

People learn more on the job, as most of our politicians are not political science graduates, so as most people working in the bank didnt study banking & finance, but even perform better than the latter's. Moreover don't forget yusuf has been in the corridor of power for 8 years and must have learnt a thing or two about governance. He looks humble and not flamboyant.
