The All Progressives Congress, APC, has officially cleared Dr. Jamil Isyaku Gwamna to stand in the forthcoming Governorship Election in Gombe State, in 2027.
The screening took place in Abuja, where it was carried out in line with the party’s constitution and internal guidelines.
The screening committee, headed by Dr. Benjamin Obi Nwoye, stated that Dr. Gwamna had satisfactorily met all constitutional and procedural requirements needed to take part in the party’s governorship primary process.
Responding after the screening, Dr. Gwamna thanked the APC leadership for what he called a transparent, credible, and rigorous exercise, designed to strengthen internal democracy and ensure quality leadership within the party.
“I am honoured to have successfully gone through this important constitutional process of our great party. This exercise further strengthens confidence in the democratic values and internal structures of the APC,” Dr. Gwamna said.
He also reaffirmed his commitment to building on the development work done in Gombe State under Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, if elected into office.
“Our vision is to ensure that Gombe State works better for every citizen, regardless of background or status. We are committed to building on existing achievements while introducing new ideas that will further improve the lives of our people,” he added.
The APC hopeful praised the performances of Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, saying their leadership and developmental achievements have continued to strengthen public confidence in the APC at both state and national levels.
He argued that the visible progress under the current administrations would energise the party’s support base and make the APC’s campaign message more compelling to voters.
Dr. Gwamna also called on party members and supporters to remain united, disciplined, and focused, stressing that the APC’s success in Gombe State depends on collective effort, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to progress.
