Gombe 2027: Hamma Saleh, only choice to deliver the goods- Youth group
As political activities ahead of the 2027 general elections begin to gather momentum, a prominent youth-led political advocacy group in Gombe State, the Alliance for a New Gombe State, has declared that Alhaji Abdulkadir Hamma Saleh, popularly known as Dokajin Nafada, is the only candidate capable of winning the gubernatorial election, regardless of political party.
The leader of the group, Comrade Yusuf Muhammad Haladu, made the assertion while addressing journalists in Gombe. He said the people of the state are no longer interested in political party affiliations, but are more concerned about credible individuals who have shown unwavering commitment to the development of the state and its people.
> “With all the coalitions — PDP, APC, or any other party — Hamma Saleh remains the only candidate with the capacity and character to win in 2027,” said Comrade Haladu. “He is not a seasonal politician. He has invested in youths, women, students, and elders for many years across Gombe State.”
According to him, Abdulkadir Hamma Saleh has consistently sacrificed his personal wealth and resources to uplift communities, empower the vulnerable, and support educational and social causes in the state, long before any political ambition.
> “This is not about party politics anymore. It’s about the person who has shown genuine concern for the people, and that person is Hamma Saleh. Gombe people will reward him with their votes,” Haladu emphasized.
He further added that Hamma Saleh enjoys widespread support across the three senatorial zones — Gombe North, Gombe Central, and Gombe South — due to his humility, accessibility, and track record of service to humanity.
> “Come 2027, we believe Gombe State needs a leader with compassion, vision, and dedication — and Hamma Saleh is that leader,” Haladu concluded.
The group urged political stakeholders across party lines to set aside personal interests and support Hamma Saleh for the greater good of the state.
Alhaji Abdulkadir Hamma Saleh, a respected political figure and philanthropist, is yet to formally declare his intention to contest the 2027 governorship election.
