Tambuwal’s deputy, Manir Dan’Iya joins Sokoto governorship race

Sokoto State Deputy Governor, Muhammed Manir Dan’Iya, has officially joined the league of contenders for the governorship seat in Sokoto State.

Dan’Iya disclosed this on his official Twitter handle earlier on Thursday where he solicited the support of members of the party seeking the ticket of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the forthcoming party primaries.

“Today, with utmost humility and Allah’s will, I formally declare my intention to run for the office of the Governor, Sokoto State, on the platform of our great party, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

“I seek your support, Thanks”

It will be recalled that the Deputy Governor was the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the 2019 general elections before stepping down for his Boss, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal after he lost the presidential primaries in Port Harcourt.
