Governor Abdullahi Sule has categorically denied reports that he has declared ambition to contest for Nasarawa North Senatorial seat in 2027.
The Governor made the refutation of the report in a statement issued to the public by his Chief Press Secretary, Ibrahim Addra on Tuesday May 20, 2025 in Lafia.
The statement reads: “Our attention has been drawn to a Social Media publication stating that the Governor of Nasarawa state, His Excellency Engr. Abdullahi A Sule, has declared to run for the position of Senator in 2027 elections.
This assertion is untrue and definitely does not emanate from Governor Abdullahi Sule.
For the avoidance of doubt, Engr. Sule has never invited anyone to confirm that he is running or to sale his candidature for senate or any other office for that matter.
In reality, there have several calls by individuals and groups on the Governor to declare interest and run for the Senate seat for Nasarawa North constituency in 2027.
In all of the instances, Governor Sule politely but firmly declined such calls maintaining that his attention remains focused on delivering on his covenant with the people of Nasarawa State as their democratically elected Governor.
In this sense, Governor Sule remains resolute and committed to his promise of leaving Nasarawa better than he met it.
While the governor appreciates all the love and endorsements from friends and supporters, it is worth restating that he has never confirmed to anyone that he is running for any office.
Governor Sule is grateful for the support he enjoys from the citizens of the state. It is pertinent however, to advise his teeming supporters to please assist the governor in delivering on his mandate at this moment.
May God bless our dear Nasarawa State and Nigeria in general.
Signed
Ibrahim Addra
Chief Press Secretary to the Governor. (www.krestnews.com).
