By Senator Ibrahim Mohammed Bomai
Our dear supporters and the good people of Yobe State,
It is important at this moment to address the issue of the APC gubernatorial ticket for 2027.
Our commitment to leadership and the unity of our people remains unwavering. However, any pursuit that does not serve the greater good of humanity ultimately serves only personal interest and not the collective future we all share.
Today, I speak not from a place of privilege, but from a place of responsibility. As I serve in my second term as Senator of Federal Republic of Nigeria, I have the opportunity to return to the Senate for a third term, a path that has, in many ways, been laid before me on a platter of gold.
But my vision goes beyond personal ambition.
My heart is with all the people of Yobe State,our youth, our women, the masses, and even generations yet unborn. It is their future that must guide the decisions we make today. It is time to sacrifice our today for their tomorrow.
History and prosperity will favor us if we choose courage over convenience, if we prioritize the will of the masses over personal desires, and if we embrace a new direction that reflects the true voice of the people.
For nearly three decades, we have followed the same path. It is only fair to ask: why not try something different?
Let us, for once, truly listen to the people from Zone A to Zone B, and from Zone B to Zone C. Let their voices be heard during our primaries. Let their will determine who emerges as our flag bearer. This aligns with the spirit of the amended Electoral Act of 2026, which places greater trust in the people.
After careful reflection, I, Senator Ibrahim Mohammed Bomai, have decided to contest in the 2027 gubernatorial primaries under our great party, the APC.
This decision is not about me.It is not about position or power.It is about the people of Yobe State.It is about development, progress, and building a future we can all be proud of.
It is about aligning with the aspirations of the masses who are calling for a new direction, a new mindset, and a new beginning.
Together, let us build a Yobe that works for everyone.
Senator Ibrahim Mohammed Bomai, Representing Yobe South. Gubernatorial Aspirant, Yobe State 2027.
