2027: How My Parents, Supporters Persuaded Me To Launch Senate Bid-Gov Abdulahi Sule

Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State disclosed on Monday that his parents and supporters made him rethink the decision to stay away from ‘elective office’ after completing his second term  next year.

The governor, who is seeking to represent Nasarawa North in the senate in 2027, noted that he has however yielded to pressure from the aforementioned people by taking a decision to launch a senate bid.

‘The overwhelming pressure from parents, supporters, people that have worked with me throughout the period is so overwhelming that it is a situation that I can reconsider’ he said.

Team@orientactualmags.com learned that Governor Abdulahi Sule, who said this while appearing on  Channels Television’s Politics Today programme  on Monday, also asserted that he has ensured that he kept his word since becoming the governor of the state.

‘Every time I have made any statement, I have kept this statement for the entire six and a half years I have been a governor. Every time I had said I was going to do something, I did it’ he added.

Sule also said he had made a name for himself before becoming a governor in 2019.

‘Before I became a governor, I was highly relevant in this country. I was the Managing Director of African Petroleum.

I got my name from the capital market for that. I am one of the governors who ran one of the most successful companies, at one time the most capitalised company in Nigeria – Dangote Sugar Refinery PLC. I made my name from there. I have done a lot of other things.

Among the governors, I am currently the Chairman of the North-Central Governors’ Forum. As a matter of fact, in two days’ time, Nasarawa State is going to be the host of what is going to be the zonal congress in Lafia’ he added-Team@orientactualmags.com  Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
