A former All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain in Bauchi State, Danjuma Adamu Dabo, has won the ticket of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for the Bauchi South Senatorial District ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Dr. Dabo, a grassroots politician and philanthropist, defected to the opposition PDP recently following intense pressure from supporters who insisted it was time for him to represent the South senatorial district at the Red Chamber of the National Assembly in Abuja.
The event which took place in Bauchi town, Wednesday, was witnessed by a mammoth crowd of supporters and party faithful, officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Representatives from party headquarters in Abuja as well as state officials of the party among other stakeholders.
Dr. Dabo was unanimously elected through a consensus option, and his election was consequently affirmed by the congress committee in accordance with party guidelines and the Electoral Act.
His emergence as the PDP flagbearer has introduced a new dimension to the contest in Bauchi South Senatorial District.
