Barrister Imamudeen Ahmed Talba, the candidate for the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Yobe North's 2027 senatorial race, has declared his intention to replace incumbent Senator Ahmad Lawan. During a meeting with journalists at the ADC's inauguration and secretariat inauguration in Damaturu, Talba explained that he was motivated by the urging of local residents who desired a change after years of Lawan's representation.
Initially uninterested in politics, Talba accepted the challenge when the district's people insisted on his candidacy. The ADC hopeful pledged to tackle Yobe North's pressing issues, which include poverty, unemployment, inadequate infrastructure, and limited educational opportunities. If elected, Talba aims to drive economic growth, support agriculture and infrastructure, revive the Nguru-Kano railway, and revive the Northern Nigeria Meat Factory in Nguru.
He also vowed to address healthcare concerns, particularly kidney-related ailments, by establishing diagnostic and dialysis facilities in Nguru, Gashua, and other affected areas. Talba emphasized that his political ambition is driven by a desire to serve the people, not for personal gain.
