The Igbo Community in Kaduna state has adopted the All Progressive Congress (APC) governorship candidate Senator Uba Sani as their preferred choice.
The Legal Adviser of the Igbo Community Welfare Association (ICWA) in the state, Barrister Valentine Ewuzie disclosed this at a stakeholders’ meeting in Kaduna on Monday, saying after a careful assessment of all the candidates, the Igbo has confirmed and adopted Uba Sni as their candidate.
Ewuzie said given Uba Sani’s achievement as a Senator, he is the most competent and qualified amongst all candidates wanting to be governor of Kaduna State.
The official who described the lawmaker as a friend of the Igbos, thumbed up the APC flag bearer for saying the Igbos were the most organized people, adding that “being the most organized, we are going to employ it in making sure that you emerge as the next governor of this state.’’
He recalled that when Igbos were given quit notices from the north in 2017, Gov. Nasir El Rufai and Senator Uba Sani, who was the Political Adviser to Gov. El-Rufai, played pivotal roles in repudiating the pronouncement.
