Background
Jigawa State is a northwestern state mainly inhabited by ethnic Hausas and Fulanis . It has a growing economy but is facing an underdeveloped agricultural sector, desertification , and low education rates. Politically, the 2019 elections confirmed the state's status as one of the most staunchly APC states in the nation as both Buhari and APC Governor Mohammed Badaru Abubakar won the state by wide margins and every single legislative seat on the senatorial , House of Representatives , and House of Assembly levels were carried by APC nominees.
