Adamawa APC chairman pledges transparent primaries ahead 2027 elections
Alhaji Hamza Madagali, Adamawa State Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has assured aspirants of a free, fair and transparent governorship primary ahead of the 2027 elections.
Madagali gave the assurance while receiving an APC governorship aspirant, Mr Felix Tangwami, on Friday in Yola.
He stressed his commitment to internal democracy and equal opportunity for all contestants.

The chairman emphasised that the party would uphold democratic principles across all elective positions, from the State Assembly to the governorship, assuring members of a credible process.
Earlier, Tangwami, who is the Commissioner for Health in Adamawa, congratulated Madagali on his emergence as chairman and pledged loyalty to the party leadership.
He said unity and discipline would remain central to his ambition.
The aspirant explained that his visit was to formally notify the party of his entry into the governorship race, noting that his ambition is driven by a desire to serve and contribute to the state’s development.
He acknowledged the achievements of Gov. Ahmadu Fintiri, adding that his experience within the system has prepared him to sustain and improve on existing gains.
Tangwami outlined his agenda to include economic reforms, industrialisation, youth and women empowerment, agriculture, healthcare improvement, security and affordable housing.
He said his vision is to create opportunities, boost businesses and improve citizens’ living standards.
