In a bid to guide Nigerians ahead of the 2027 general elections, the Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammad Sa'ad Abubakar, urged voters to thoroughly evaluate the promises made by political leaders. Speaking at a meeting with the All Progressives Congress (APC) 2027 Campaign Council, the Sultan cautioned politicians against using national challenges such as insecurity as a means to polarise the electorate.
He emphasized the importance of focusing on issues that would foster peace, unity, and progress, urging political parties and candidates to adhere to peaceful, issue-driven campaigns. The Sultan also highlighted that while complete eradication of issues like insecurity and poverty might be unachievable, efforts should be made to mitigate their impact on the populace.
He wished the APC campaign council success and prayed for continued stability and good governance in Nigeria. Earlier, APC campaign council leader Senator Abdul-Aziz Yari Abubakar had expressed his delegation's intention to seek the Sultan's guidance and prayers as they prepare for the elections. He also highlighted President Bola Tinubu's commitment to the development of the North and the nation, and the APC-led government's achievements in promoting peace, unity, and cohesion.
