The Niger Good Governance Forum, a civic organization based in Niger State, has officially endorsed Senator Mohammed Sani Musa for a third term in the National Assembly. The group cited his outstanding performance in lawmaking and constituency representation as key reasons for the endorsement.
In a statement released to the press, the Forum's president, Bagudu Musa Bagudu, highlighted Senator Musa's consistency in legislative duties and his responsiveness to the needs of his constituents in the Niger East senatorial district. The group noted that the senator has maintained active engagement with grassroots communities while contributing meaningfully to debates and oversight functions in the Senate.
Constituency Interventions and Impact
The Forum pointed to various constituency interventions credited to Senator Musa, including support for small businesses, educational initiatives, and community development projects across Niger East. The group emphasized that his work reflects accessibility and accountability, with visible impacts in several communities.
"Beyond the chambers, his interventions at the constituency level have touched lives directly. From support for small businesses to educational assistance and infrastructure facilitation, the evidence of his work is visible and widely acknowledged," Bagudu stated.
Call for Continuity
The Forum stressed that continuity in representation is essential to sustain ongoing projects and deepen development efforts in the district. "We believe sustaining his tenure will consolidate ongoing initiatives and deliver greater benefits to the people," the statement read. "A third term will provide the opportunity to deepen ongoing initiatives and deliver even greater benefits to the people."
The group urged voters in Niger East to support Senator Musa's re-election bid, describing him as a dependable leader with a clear focus on development. "Leadership is about results, and he has shown that he can deliver," Bagudu added.
This endorsement adds to early political positioning ahead of the 2027 general elections, as lawmakers across Nigeria begin building support bases for re-election campaigns. In a related development, former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello has publicly backed Leke Abejide for a third term in the House of Representatives, arguing that experienced lawmakers are better positioned to attract projects and influence national decisions. Bello made the appeal during the 50th birthday celebration of Abejide's wife in Abuja, urging support for continuity in representation.
