Former Kaduna State Governor Mukhtar Yero, outspoken rights activist and former Senator Shehu Sani, and Katung have each secured the All Progressives Congress (APC) senatorial tickets in Kaduna State’s three senatorial districts, emerging as winners of the party’s primary elections held across the state.
The outcomes mark a significant moment in Kaduna’s political landscape, with the three candidates defeating their respective rivals to claim the APC flag in what were closely watched and fiercely contested primaries. Yero’s victory in particular signals a remarkable political comeback for the former governor, who has remained a dominant force in the state’s politics.
Shehu Sani, widely known for his vocal activism and independent political posture, also sailed through his primary, consolidating his return to mainstream APC politics. Katung’s victory rounds off a clean sweep for the three candidates, giving the APC a formidable trio heading into the general election season.
Political analysts say the results will significantly reshape the battle for the Kaduna Senate seats, with all three winners expected to mount strong campaigns in their respective districts.
