In Soba Local Government Area of Kaduna State, some members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have declared their support for Governor Uba Sani ahead of the 2027 governorship election. Their decision is based on the projects he has undertaken, most notably road construction in their communities, which have significantly improved their lives and economic activities.

Adamu Danburam, a PDP coordinator in the area, explained that despite belonging to the opposition party, he will vote for Uba Sani because he believes the governor has delivered what the PDP failed to achieve in their community. "I am a staunch PDP member, but for us, politics is about individuals. Although we belong to the PDP, I will vote for Uba Sani because he has done for me what the PDP could not do," Danburam stated.

Similarly, Dogara Mohammed pledged his support for the APC in 2027 due to the road construction project that has benefited his community. He emphasized that the road's benefits will extend beyond his town, impacting future generations and people across the country, especially those traveling. Hassan Adamu Abdullahi also expressed his intention to vote for Uba Sani, citing the poor condition of roads in the past that hampered farmers' ability to transport their produce, particularly during the rainy season.
