Kaduna 2023 Gov’ship: APC counters all-male PDP ticket with gender balance
In a move that surprised pundits, the APC flagbearer in 2023 Kaduna governorship race, Senator Uba Sani has pulled a surprise by picking incumbent Deputy Governor Hadiza sabuwa Balarabe as his running mate.
Senator Uba Sani’s unexpected gender-sensitve running mate strategy is widely considered a game-changer as the women voters in Kaduna have reputation for turning out enmasse to vote since 1999.
Meanwhile a cross-section of respondents in Kaduna metropolis have described the move as a political masterstroke because PDP was considered to have made a rash decision by sticking to an exclusively male-male ticket.
