In Jigawa State, supporters reportedly loyal to Defence Minister Mohammed Badaru allegedly vandalized billboards featuring Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Vice President Kashim Shettima, Governor Umar Namadi, and the Jigawa APC Chairman, Aminu Gumel.

The incident, witnessed in key areas of Dutse, has stirred political speculation amid rumors of Badaru’s possible defection to the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of the 2027 elections.

Witnesses reported seeing billboards slashed, defaced, or completely destroyed, with locals suggesting the actions may be linked to growing tensions between the Defence Minister and Governor Namadi.

Some of the minister’s supporters claim the Governor has sidelined them, with Bala Sule Babura, a youth loyal to Badaru, expressing frustration over unmet promises and restricted access to government officials.

“The Governor here has refused to follow the instructions of the former Governor. We feel abandoned,” Babura said.

Political analysts believe Governor Namadi, who secured widespread support despite Badaru’s resistance, has solidified his position, potentially leaving the Defence Minister marginalized.

According to local resident Baba Mohammad, Badaru’s speculated defection to the PDP would likely weaken his influence further.

“Badaru aligning with the PDP may signal a total collapse of his political structure in Jigawa,” Mohammad noted, adding that any attempt to destabilize the state could backfire.

The governor, meanwhile, has dismissed these grievances, reiterating that state funds are allocated for development, not political demands.

Some APC insiders view Badaru’s actions as disruptive, arguing that Namadi, as the party’s leader in Jigawa, should focus on rebuilding after Badaru’s tenure.

As rumors swirl, Jigawa residents are closely watching these developments, and opposition members have taken note, viewing potential rifts within the APC as an opportunity to attract disaffected supporters.
