Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule, has unequivocally declared that he has no intentions of pursuing any political office once his second term as governor concludes.

The 64-year-old governor, who secured victory in the March 18, 2023 polls and recently had his win affirmed by the Supreme Court, made this statement on Channels Television‘s Politics Today.

Governor Sule, addressing his political rival David Ombugadu, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in the last election, stated, “I came in only to be a governor. I did not come in to be a chairman, a senator, or a member of the House of Representatives. I don’t have any dreams for those offices.” He further clarified, “I have no dream of becoming even president. I have no dreams of that. I can tell you categorically that Abdullahi Sule would not go for Senate after leaving office. By the time I finish my eight years, I can do whatever I want to do.”

Expressing his contentment with the conclusion of election litigation, Governor Sule stated, “I am happy it is over. It is finished, that is the end of it, and we can now focus on the job and move on.” The Supreme Court had dismissed the appeal of the PDP governorship candidate, affirming Sule’s election as the governor of Nasarawa State.

Reflecting on his confidence in winning the case, Sule highlighted the favorable judgments in both the tribunal and the Appeal Court. He affirmed, “I was expecting to win; the reason being, first at the tribunal, we had three judges and they disagreed with themselves… we picked from there and went to the Appeal Court where there are now more experienced three judges, and all the three of them unanimously said we won, so you can imagine into the Supreme Court with a lot of confidence, I did not doubt in my mind about the fact that we are going to win.”

Governor Sule defended his victory, emphasizing the overwhelming support he received from the people of Nasarawa State. He attributed the loss of senatorial seats by his party to internal conflicts rather than a decrease in support within the state.
