With an eye on the 2027 general elections, the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Jigawa State is intensifying its organizational groundwork. Party officials have announced the inauguration of new ward-level secretariats, starting with a freshly commissioned office in Garki local government area, as part of a strategic push to secure a sweeping victory.
Adamu Hudu Kore, chairman of the Garki council, disclosed during a press briefing on Wednesday that the party has already opened one ward office and plans to unveil two more each month until all 11 wards in the area have their own operational hubs. According to Kore, these facilities will serve as central points for party activities, community outreach, and member mobilization.
The initiative also attracted a wave of defectors from rival political parties, who joined the APC ranks. Kore emphasized that Garki remains a stronghold of the APC and that Jigawa as a whole is securely within the party’s grip. He reiterated his administration’s commitment to bolstering democratic institutions and creating platforms for grassroots political participation.
This grassroots expansion reflects the APC’s broader strategy to entrench its presence well ahead of the 2027 polls, ensuring that no ward is left behind in the race for votes.
