The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Sokoto State says it is strategically positioned to reclaim power in 2027, citing a surge of support from youths and women across the state’s 23 local government areas.
Speaking during a well-attended meeting at the party’s state secretariat on Saturday, PDP chieftain Faruku Sarkin-fada expressed optimism that the party’s grassroots mobilisation drive was paying off.
On the much-speculated opposition coalition ahead of the 2027 general election, Sarkin-fada said party members were waiting for the directive of the party leader and former governor, Senator Aminu Tambuwal, whom he described as a “visionary leader with the political experience to guide the PDP to victory.”
He further stated, “Whatever direction Tambuwal chooses, the members will follow wholeheartedly in the interest of unity and electoral success.”
Party insiders who spoke with Punch revealed that more strategic meetings would be convened in the coming weeks to consolidate alliances, strengthen internal structures, and prepare for possible coalition negotiations.
“For now, all eyes are on Tambuwal to unveil the PDP’s definitive political roadmap in Sokoto State as the countdown to 2027 gains momentum,” a party insider said.
While some prominent leaders were present at the gathering, the majority of attendees were energetic youths who turned up in large numbers to show solidarity with Tambuwal.
Sarkin-fada noted that the PDP’s 2027 blueprint would focus on the aspirations of the people, particularly the younger generation, who make up the bulk of the electorate.
According to him, recent outreach programmes, ward-level consultations, and social engagement initiatives had been instrumental in reconnecting with the grassroots.
“We are not just waiting for 2027; we are working daily to ensure the people see PDP as the credible alternative,” Sarkin-fada stressed.
