In the forthcoming 2027 elections, Senator Ahmed Abdul Ningi, a well-known member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the senator representing Bauchi Central, has formally declared his intention to run for governor of Bauchi State under the PDP banner.
This statement reportedly came at a meeting with PDP stakeholders in the Ganjuwa Local Government Area on Friday.
Ningi, who serves as the Deputy Majority Leader of the Nigerian Senate, underlined his commitment to the party and to the people of Bauchi State.
He made it clear that his desire to work in this role is not driven by personal ambition but rather by a sincere wish to serve the community with greater responsibilities.
I have established my reputation; I am not running for governor in search of notoriety or popularity. What more recognition do I require now that I am the Deputy Senate Leader?” he said.

Additionally, Ningi emphasized his longstanding commitment to the PDP. Since the beginning, I have been a founding member of the party. I will not leave, and I never have. Our objective is to fortify the party, hold onto power in Bauchi State, and regain national leadership by 2027.
Ningi urged PDP members to start getting ready for the 2027 elections, stressing the significance of choosing a candidate for the party’s gubernatorial ticket who has the political savvy required to win and build on the party’s achievements.
