A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Nasarawa State, Hon. Ibrahim Hamza says the overwhelming victory of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the just-concluded Nasarawa North Senatorial District by-election has vindicated his position that there is no viable opposition in Nasarawa State.

Speaking with Kwararafa Times in an exclusive interview shortly after the results were announced, Hamza described APC candidate Alhaji Danladi Evulanza’s win as proof of public confidence in the ruling party and Governor Abdullahi Sule’s administration.

“The victory of Alhaji Danladi Evulanza has once again confirmed what I have always maintained—that there is no real opposition in Nasarawa State. People are simply shouting, but the electorate have continued to identify with the APC because of the tangible achievements of Governor Abdullahi Sule,” he stated.

Hamza said Governor Sule’s leadership over the last seven years has overshadowed criticism from opposition elements.

He pointed to achievements in economic growth, infrastructural development, and social advancement as reasons for the administration’s popularity.

“The remarkable achievements of Governor Abdullahi Sule have rendered opposition elements ineffective and unreliable in the eyes of the people. The administration’s performance speaks louder than any political propaganda,” he added.

According to him, the governor’s strategic investments, improved infrastructure, and welfare-focused policies have earned the trust of citizens across the state.

The lawmaker described the by-election result as a preview of the 2027 general elections, insisting that APC remains the party to beat in Nasarawa State.

“This victory is a manifestation of what will happen in 2027. The APC has firmly established itself as the dominant political force in Nasarawa State and remains the party to beat,” he said.

Hamza called on members of opposition parties to set aside partisan interests and join APC in advancing the state’s development.

He also expressed confidence that Senator Ahmed Aliyu Wadada would emerge victorious in the forthcoming governorship election.

“Senator Ahmed Aliyu Wadada is not a benchwarmer in the National Assembly. He has always stood firmly for policies and initiatives that benefit the people, particularly the people of Nasarawa State. His antecedents speak for themselves, and he has continually demonstrated his pedigree in public service,” Hamza said.

He expressed optimism that APC would continue to enjoy the support of Nasarawa people due to Governor Sule’s performance-driven leadership and commitment to delivering democratic dividends.
