Shehu Sule Udi, stated this while reacting to the Jigawa APC\u2019s declaration that it would deliver two million votes for Tinubu\u2019s re-election.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200eUdi argued that the number of registered voters in Jigawa State made the APC\u2019s target questionable, describing the declaration as political propaganda.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200eAccording to him, figures displayed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) showed that Jigawa had 2,807,811 registered voters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200e\u201cThis clearly shows that the party is just making propaganda,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200e\u201cLook at how our presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and other candidates in ADC are gaining support across Jigawa State every day. For somebody to tell you that they will deliver two million votes to Tinubu is ridiculous,\u201d Udi stated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200eHe claimed that residents of the state were dissatisfied with the current administration because of the economic hardship facing Nigerians.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200e\u201cPeople of Jigawa State are tired of this administration. They have suffered enough, and no reasonable person will vote for the APC in the coming election.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200e\u201cOur presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, will win Jigawa State with massive votes and defeat President Bola Ahmed Tinubu,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200eUdi maintained that the ADC remained a credible alternative capable of addressing the economic challenges facing the country.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200eHe expressed confidence that the growing support for the party across Jigawa State would translate into electoral victory in 2027.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200eThe ADC candidate spoke while welcoming defectors from other political parties in Ringim and Taura Local Government Areas, describing their decision to join the party as a boost to its political strength ahead of the elections.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/2026\/10\/2027-adc-dismisses-apcs-2m-votes-target-for-tinubu-in-jigawa\/\">2027: ADC dismisses APC\u2019s 2m votes target for Tinubu in Jigawa\u200e<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Source: <\/p>\n<div class=\"nSourse\">Vanguard News<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Muhammad Inuwa \u200eThe African Democratic Congress (ADC) has expressed confidence that its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, will win Jigawa State in the 2027 general elections, dismissing the All Progressives&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1540","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1540","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1540"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1540\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1540"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1540"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1540"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
