Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State has debunked media publications alleging that he has declared his intention to contest for the 2027 senatorial position.
Sule, who spoke through his Chief Press Secretary, Chief Ibrahim Addra, said that the assertion is untrue and does not emanate from Governor Abdullahi Sule.
“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 the 2027 elections.
“For the avoidance of doubt, Engr. Sule has never invited anyone to confirm that he is running or to sell his candidature for the Senate or any other office, for that matter.
“In reality, there have been 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 these 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.”
He disclosed that 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.”
