The All Progressives Congress said it’s optimistic of winning the February 3 Birnin kudu/Buji federal constituency by-election in Jigawa.

The state APC Chairman, Alhaji Sani Gumel, said this when he inaugurated the party’s campaign committee at its secretariat in Dutse.

Also speaking, the Committee Chairman, Alhaji Aminu Usman, promised to mobilise the electorate to ensure victory for the party.


The by-election followed the ruling of an Appeal Court which declared the February 25, 2023 election inconclusive, urging the Independent National Electoral Commission to conduct a by-election in eight polling units of the constituency in 30 days.
