Abbas Tajudeen, Speaker of the House of Representatives has said that the people of Kaduna State have no reason to vote for any candidate in the 2027 presidential election apart from President Bola Tinubu.
According to Abbas, Tinubu has demonstrated commitment to Kaduna State “in very practical terms”, by initiating “a wide range of federal infrastructure projects that directly impact” the people of the state.
For these and other reasons, the Speaker said, the people of Kaduna State were ready to double the numbers from the votes the president garnered from Kaduna State in the 2023 general elections come 2027.
The Speaker stated these in a remark during President Tinubu’s visit to Kaduna State to commission some projects executed by the Governor Uba Sani administration on Thursday.

The projects commissioned by the president included the Institute of Vocational Training and Skills Development in Rigachikun, Soba, and Samaru-Kataf; a 300-bed state-of-the-art hospital in Kaduna Millennium City; the 24km Kafanchan Township Road; the Tudun Biri Road; the 22 km Kauru-Pambegua Road linking Kauru and Kubau LGAS; the Vocational and Skills Training Centre in Tudun Biri; and the launch of 100 Compressed Natural Gas buses.
Noting that Kaduna State continues to play a critical role in shaping Nigeria’s political direction and development priorities, Abbas described Tinubu’s visit as timely and significant.
“It reflects a leadership that engages directly, listens attentively, and responds with action.”
The Speaker assured Tinubu that, “Kaduna remains committed not only to development but also to your continued leadership and the realisation of the Renewed Hope Agenda”, he said.
” Our goal is to double that margin and secure at least 60 per cent of the vote in 2027. This is not merely a political ambition; it is a coordinated objective backed by a united political structure and a population that believes in your leadership.
“Kaduna has no reason to vote for anyone else in 2027. My belief is strengthened by your administration’s commitment to Kaduna in very practical terms. You have initiated a wide range of federal infrastructure projects that directly impact the state of Kaduna”, Abbas said.
