Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule , has dismissed remarks of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) that the 2027 election is about the All Progressives Congress (APC) against Nigerian.
Naija News reports that ADC had repeatedly claimed that the 2027 election is about APC and the citizens due to hardship in the country.

However, Sule, during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Thursday, said that elections in Nigeria are candidate-based rather than party-based.
He said, “The 2027 election is about Bola Tinubu/Kashim Shettima on the platform of the APC against candidates from other parties.
“It is a wrong impression to say the election is about APC against Nigerians. For us here in Nasarawa State, we actually vote for candidates.

“The people of Nigeria are going to vote for the best candidates that they know and who can make an impact in their lives, whether it’s Governorship, Senatorial, House of Representatives, or House of Assembly elections. That is the way it is. That’s the way it has always been.”
In other news, Governor Sule recently approved the appointment of eight new Permanent Secretaries into the state’s public service in a move aimed at strengthening administrative efficiency and improving service delivery across government ministries and departments.
The approval was contained in a press release dated January 21, 2026, and issued by the Head of the Civil Service, Abigail Waya.
