Leaders and stakeholders from the nine Local Government Areas of Adamawa Southern Senatorial District have presented the All Progressives Congress (APC) nomination and expression of interest form to Rt. Hon. Kwamoti Bitrus Laori, urging him to contest the 2027 senatorial election.
The presentation followed a large solidarity rally held on Thursday, April 30, 2026, at Pwanobato Event Hall in Numan. The gathering brought together representatives from Demsa, Ganye, Guyuk, Jada, Lamurde, Mayo-Belwa, Numan, Shelleng, and Toungo LGAs, who unanimously called on the lawmaker to represent the district at the Senate.
Demonstrating their commitment, the group procured the APC nomination and interest form valued at ₦20 million and formally presented it to Rt. Hon. Laori on May 2, 2026, in Numan.
Speaking on behalf of the group, Alhaji Ali Gurama urged the seasoned legislator to accept the call, citing his track record of service over the past 16 years in both the State House of Assembly and the House of Representatives.
In his response, Rt. Hon. Laori expressed deep appreciation for the show of confidence and solidarity and formally accepted the nomination to contest the senatorial seat.
He urged the stakeholders to intensify their efforts to ensure their support translates into victory, emphasizing the need to mobilize party members across the district to rally behind his candidacy. He cautioned that failure to build consensus could weaken their chances at the party primaries.
Rt. Hon. Laori further assured that any aspirant who chooses to step down in support of his ambition would not regret the decision, while reiterating his commitment to an inclusive campaign and people-oriented representation.
He pledged to continue operating in line with the collective will of the people and promised not to disappoint if elected.
The nomination and expression of interest forms were formally presented by Alhaji Ali Gurama on behalf of the stakeholders’ group.
