In an impressive primary election contest, a female Senator Aisha Dahiru Ahmed Binani,  beat six male aspirants and political heavyweights to secure the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship ticket in Adamawa State.

The election committee chairman, Malam Gambo, declared  Binani the winner, after scoring 430 votes, the highest in the election to defeat Nuhu Ribadu, a former presidential aspirant of the Action Congress and pioneer chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), who polled 288 votes.

Umar Mustapha Madawaki and Wafarniyi Theman respectively clinched a fifth and sixth positions in the contest.

Aishatu had her university education in the UK, where she obtained a Higher National Diploma in Electrical Engineering at the University of Southampton.

She is currently the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
