By Ndahi Marama

President Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate for the 2027 general elections, secured a complete victory in Mafa Ward of Borno State – the home ward of Governor Babagana Zulum.

The direct primary election took place at Mafa Central Primary School and was overseen by Hajiya Inna Alkali Imam, Chairperson of the Presidential Primary Election Committee.

Tinubu received 2,175 votes, accounting for 100 % of the valid votes cast. Mafa Ward has 2,277 registered party members, and the turnout was nearly total, with almost every registered member participating.

The only other candidate, Stanley Osifo, a businessman and APC chieftain from Edo State, received no votes.

Babagana Umara Zulum, Coordinator and Collation Officer for the state presidential primary, was present in Mafa to observe and participate in the exercise.

“I am from Mafa Ward, and that is why I am here to witness and participate in the exercise. We have two candidates, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Mr Stanley Osifo,” Zulum said.

Governor Zulum, who also cast his vote, expressed satisfaction with the conduct of the primary and the enthusiasm of party members.

“So far so good, we have contacted the presidential primary election for Mafa ward, and I am very impressed with the turnout. We have a total of about 2,277 registered party members in Mafa ward, out of which 2,175 were accredited for the voting, and all of them voted for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, while the other candidate scored zero,” Zulum said.

The APC presidential primary is continuing nationwide, with final results to be announced later.
