The member representing Kiru/Bebeji Federal Constituency, Kano, in the House of Representatives, Abdulmumin Jibrin, has said that he has no ambition to contest the 2027 general election.
Jibrin made this known in a statement on Sunday, saying: “I am compelled for the umpteenth time to state clearly, for clarification’s sake, that I am neither interested in contesting for the Kano South Senatorial seat nor in the Kano governorship position in 2027.
“However, it is not surprising that my name always comes up in discussions like these, and over the years, I have learned to take it as a compliment and a reflection that I have made my modest contribution politically and will continue to do so in service to my constituents and country.”
Jibrin said even in his present role as a fourth-term member of the House of Representatives, having won elections back-to-back in different parties, he remains modestly ambitious and has kept his passion for helping others to higher positions.
He stated that having served in the House of Reps as Chairman, Committees on Finance, Appropriations, Transportation, Foreign Affairs, and presently Housing and Habitat, and as Executive Director at the Federal Housing Authority (FHA), he finds contentment in the many blessings showered on him by the Almighty God.
“Those who know me well know that wherever I find myself, politically or even in my private business before running for political office, and the academia or otherwise, and whatever assignment I am entrusted with, I am unwavering in my commitment to deliver results, and that has always been my principle,” he said.
