The Senator representing Nasarawa South Senatorial District at the National Assembly, Mohammed Onawo, has emerged as the governorship candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement for the 2027 general election in Nasarawa State.
Onawo was elected during the party’s special delegates primary held on Saturday in Lafia through affirmation by delegates drawn from across the 13 Local Government Areas of the state.
The congress was convened to fill the vacancy created by the withdrawal of the former candidate, Dr Mohamed Auwal, who also serves as the Nasarawa State Chairman of APM.
Speaking after his affirmation, Onawo thanked the party members for the confidence reposed in him and pledged to run an issue-based and inclusive campaign focused on security, infrastructural development, agriculture, education and job creation.
