Reports from Kaduna State indicate that the people of Kaduna Central have expressed their support for Alhaji Yerima Shettima as a candidate for Senator in the upcoming 2027 general elections.
According to reports by our correspondent in the Senatorial zone, the people of Kaduna Central, which includes seven local governments Kaduna North and South, Chikun, Igabi, Birnin Gwari, Giwa, and Kajuru—have portrayed Yerima Shettima as the only individual capable of lifting the region from its prolonged lack of representation in the Senate.
Yerima Shettima, who is the president of the Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF), has accepted the call from the community for him to run for the Senate in the 2027 elections.
In an interview with newsmen in Kaduna, Alhaji Yerima Shettima stated that he made the decision to run for office in response to the public appeals urging him to do so. As a native of the area, he believes it is his duty to contribute to the advancement of the Constituency.
“I will focus on improving the lives of women and youth in the Kaduna Central region if I succeed in becoming a Senator. I will prioritize education to build a better community in the area. The people will feel represented once God grants me the opportunity to become a Senator in 2027,” he stated.
