2027: Woman politician predicts Tinubu’s ‘wide marging’ victory in Jigawa
By Ahmed Aminu, Dutse
A stalwart of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Jigawa State, Dr. Halima Sulaiman Zakari, has predicted that both President Bola Tinubu and Governor Umar Namadi will win Jigawa State by wide margin in 2027.
She spoke to reporters at the Federal Government College, Kiyawa, shortly after the commissioning of newly constructed and renovated hostel blocks.
The hostel blocks were renovated by her at the cost of N120 million.
Dr. Halima expressed confidence that the APC will beat the opposition hands down, basing her confidence on the successes being recorded in the implementation of the Renewed Hope Agenda at the national level and the 12-point agenda in the state.
According to her, both programmes have touched the lives of Nigerians and have endeared the party to the electorate.
“As far as I’m concerned, APC is doing very well in Jigawa and across Nigeria. The foresight, boldness and experience of President Tinubu in implementing the Renewed Hope Agenda are clearly visible,” she added.
According to her, Governor Namadi’s love for the common man has been evident in the execution of his 12-point developmental plan, which has touched every sector of human life.
“Wherever you go, you can attest to their work and commitment to serving the people. Their performance has made it clear that they are chief servants.
“I believe 2027 is going to be an easy ride because they are delivering on the mandate they were elected for,” she said.
Dr. Halima, a philanthropist known for her interventions in Jigawa South-West, also spoke on her recent donation to her alma mater.
She said she was moved to act after visiting the Federal Government College, Kiyawa in May 2025 and finding the school in poor condition.
“I believe there is nothing wrong in giving back to humanity and to the community that shaped who I am today,” she said.
