The Peoples Democratic Party senatorial candidate for Jigawa South-West, Suleiman Abba, who is a former Inspector-General of Police, has pledged to address the challenges confronting the district and other parts of the state if elected in 2027.\n<\/p>\n

He pledged to work towards finding lasting solutions to the challenges confronting the district, which he described as underserved in infrastructure, youth empowerment and security.<\/p>\n
