The Secretary to the Niger State Government (SSG) Alhaji Abubakar Usman has implored newly constituted ambassadors to embark on massive mobilisation of the electorate for the reelection of Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago in 2027.
Usman gave this charge at the weekend in Suleja at the inauguration of the ambassadors drawn from Niger East by the Deputy Governor of the state, comrade Yakubu Garba.
He said, “This political structure was established purely to mobilise support for the APC and Governor Bago’s second-term bid. The administration has demonstrated commitment to the development and transformation of Niger State. Therefore, the formation of the SSG Ambassadors for Bago, Zone B is to acknowledge and consolidate the achievements recorded by the APC-led administration under the leadership of the Farmer Governor, Mohammed Umaru Bago”.
He explained that the ambassadors have also been mandated to mobilise massive support for the All Progressives Congress (APC), Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago and all APC candidates from top to bottom in the forthcoming elections.
According to him, “the formation of the SSG Ambassadors is also in recognition of what the APC administration have done for the people of Zone B, adding that, “the people must be adequately mobilised to sustain the development trajectory through continuity”.
Usman advised the ambassadors to see their responsibility as a serious task, urging them to take the message of the administration’s achievements to the grassroots and engage the people with humility, respect and decorum.
The SSG disclosed that Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago will officially flag off his campaign on September 19, 2026, and called on the Ambassadors to intensify their mobilisation efforts ahead of the campaign flag-off.
He emphasised that their assignment goes beyond political mobilisation, as they are expected to interact with the people, communicate the achievements of the administration and encourage continued support for the APC.
In a remark, the Chairman of the occasion and APC Zone B Chairman, Hon. Ahijo Danladi Walijoh, described Zone B as a powerful political entity , adding that Suleja, being the largest political constituency in the zone, is strategically chosen to host the inauguration as part of efforts to consolidate the APC and secure victory for Farmer Governor Bago and other APC candidates.
