Yusuf Buhari, son of former President Muhammadu Buhari, has emerged winner of the APC House of Representatives primary for Daura/Sandamu/Mai’adua Federal Constituency despite allegations of irregularities by his opponent.
Yusuf Buhari has emerged winner of the All Progressives Congress House of Representatives primary for Daura/Sandamu/Mai’adua Federal Constituency in Katsina State.
The result was announced on Saturday in Daura by the chairman of the constituency’s APC primary election committee, Lawal Garba.
Garba said Yusuf Buhari secured 17,342 votes to defeat his rival, Auwalu Daura, who polled 480 votes.
Following his victory, Buhari thanked party members and supporters for their backing and pledged to work for the party’s success in the 2027 general elections.
“I will embrace everyone and carry all party members along to ensure that APC emerges victorious,” he said.
However, his opponent, Auwalu Daura, rejected the outcome, alleging irregularities and claiming many participants were not registered APC members with valid membership cards.
