Speaking at the gathering, the Dan Madamin Daura and District Head of Dumurkol, Musa Haro, urged party members and residents to back Yusuf’s candidacy.

“We are here to ask for your support for our brother. We will go to the people in every town and village to seek their support,” he said.
“We will also reach out to other aspirants contesting the same seat to collaborate with them and seek their support.”

He also acknowledged the efforts of the current lawmaker representing the constituency.

“Even the current member, Hon. Aminu Jamo, did his best. We know how politics is — nobody can do 100 per cent,” Haro added.

Political groundwork intensifies ahead of 2027

Yusuf was accompanied by a former lawmaker who represented the constituency, Fatuhu Muhammad, along with members of his family.

The seat is currently held by Aminu Jamo, and political activities are expected to intensify in the coming months as aspirants position themselves ahead of the 2027 elections.
