As momentum builds ahead of the 2027 general elections, lawmakers from Katsina State have thrown their weight behind Governor Umar Dikko Radda, endorsing him for a second term in office. The endorsement signals a strong show of unity and confidence in the governor’s leadership, as political tides begin to shift across Nigeria.
The declaration was made in Abuja by Hon. Sada Soli, a respected member of the House of Representatives representing Jibia and Kaita Federal Constituency. Speaking at a press conference, Soli confirmed that the decision to back Governor Radda was unanimous among Katsina lawmakers, who cited widespread approval from their constituents and the governor’s visible developmental strides as reasons for their support.
Governor Radda, who came into office with a reform-driven agenda, has been praised for prioritizing security in a region frequently affected by banditry and communal clashes. His administration has also made significant investments in education, agriculture, and local entrepreneurship, with a focus on empowering youth and fostering unity across diverse communities.
