Political observers say Dada’s dominance in key high-turnout wards such as Maikunkele, Maitumbi, Chanchaga, Kaffin-Koro and Tutungo/Jedna significantly shaped the outcome of the primary, giving him a clear advantage in the overall collation from Paikoro LGA.
Engineer Ibrahim Dada, a Fellow of the Nigerian Society of Engineers (FNSE), is widely known within Niger State for his grassroots mobilisation efforts, youth engagement initiatives, and involvement in community development programmes. His growing political visibility has been linked to increasing support across Bosso and Paikoro local government areas.
Party officials are expected to continue final constituency-level collation before official ratification of the APC primary result.
