Non-indigenous residents of Kaduna State, under the Kaduna State Association of Non-Indigenes Support Group for the All Progressives Congress, on Saturday declared their support for Governor Uba Sani and President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The group made its position known during a mega rally tagged, “Together as One, We Stand for Uba Sani – Our Man,” held in Kaduna.

The rally, which took on a carnival-like atmosphere, began around 9am from the Kigo Road area, where a large number of non-indigenes reside. The participants marched through Constitution Road and the busy Ahmadu Bello Way before ending at the APC secretariat on Muhammadu Buhari Way, formerly WAFF Road, at about 11am.

The event attracted leaders and members of various ethnic associations across the state, who marched through the streets carrying placards and banners in support of the APC administration.

Addressing the gathering, the running mate to Governor Sani in the 2027 governorship election, Jerry Adams, who represented the governor, said the administration was committed to treating all residents equally, regardless of their ethnic or religious backgrounds.

Adams said Sani had demonstrated through his policies and programmes that Kaduna belonged to everyone living and conducting legitimate business in the state.

“Governor Uba Sani is a governor for everybody. He is a governor for the Muslims, Christians and people of all ethnic groups living in Kaduna.

“This is a government that recognises that Kaduna belongs to everybody. Your businesses are safe, and your properties are safe. Nobody is pressurising anybody to leave the state,” he said.

The APC governorship running mate urged the non-indigenes to sustain their support for the administration and mobilise their families, friends and communities ahead of the 2027 elections.

He said the turnout demonstrated that Kaduna was a state for everyone, while appreciating the groups for their solidarity with the governor and the APC.

Adams, a former Chairman of the Kaduna State Revenue Service, also urged the participants to support the Federal Government under President Bola Tinubu, saying both the state and federal administrations were focused on improving the lives of Nigerians.

Also speaking, the Chairman of Jaba Local Government Area, Larai Ishaku, said the state government had introduced various programmes aimed at improving residents’ welfare and economic well-being.

Ishaku highlighted government interventions supporting businesses and other initiatives designed to improve livelihoods, urging residents to continue supporting programmes that promote good governance.

Earlier, one of the rally’s conveners, Chief John Nwankwere, said the event was organised to demonstrate the support of non-indigenous communities for the APC administration.

Nwankwere reaffirmed the participating communities’ commitment to the party and said they would continue mobilising support for the APC ahead of the 2027 elections.

Similarly, the Chairman of the Political Committee of Ndigbos in Kaduna State, Chief Patrick Lawson, said members of the Igbo community remained committed to peaceful coexistence and participation in the political process.

The rally ended with leaders of the participating ethnic associations reaffirming their support for Sani and Tinubu ahead of the 2027 general elections.
