Forum Congratulates Kwara, Katsina Speakers Over Gov’ship, Senate Tickets

The Progressive Speakers’ Forum of Nigeria has congratulated two of its members for securing the governorship and Senate tickets, as well as all other members who obtained return tickets as All Progressives Congress (APC) flag bearers for the 2027 general election.

The chairman of the forum, who is also the speaker of Jigawa State House of Assembly, Hon. Haruna Aliyu Dangyatin, sent the congratulatory messages to the winners.

He said the speaker of Katsina State, Hon. Nasir Yahaya Daura, who was elected as the APC senatorial candidate for Daura Zone, and Kwara State speaker,  Hon. Yakubu Dalladi Salihu, who secured the governorship ticket in the just‑concluded APC primary election, had made the forum proud of their landmark political achievements.

Dangyatin stated that the forum was equally proud of its members who received return tickets for another round of the general election, describing the development as a symbol of the positive contribution of forum members in promoting democracy and good governance in Nigeria.

The speaker further stated that forum members will continue to promote the exemplary leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and also ensure his return for a second term.

He added, “Not only will we work for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re‑election, but we will also jointly work to ensure that all APC candidates win their elections at all levels in order to achieve sustainable democracy and growth in Nigeria.

“For our members, we believe that the philosophy of our forum and party remains a guiding principle to them, and as they excel in promoting the rule of law, transparency and public accountability—which has earned them public confidence, I believe they will find it easy to win their elections.”

He then called on all Nigerians to continue supporting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s “Renewed Hope” reforms, as well as the exemplary leadership of APC governors and other elected leaders under the party.
