Tuesday, August 19, 2025 - Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani, has mocked the opposition after the bye-election, stressing that elections were not won on the social media.
This was as he warned politicians against relying on social
media propaganda to win elections.
The governor said this on Monday during a stakeholders’
meeting after the All Progressives Congress, APC, won two state constituencies
and a federal constituency in Saturday’s by-elections in Kaduna.
According to him, political victories were secured through
grassroots mobilisation and good governance, not online battles.
Governor Sani criticised opposition parties for focusing on
“Twitter (X) battles and Facebook noise”, adding that the APC’s emphasis on
inclusivity and people-centred policies gave it an edge at the polls.
“There is no ballot box on Twitter. There is no ballot box
on Instagram or Facebook. Elections are won at the grassroots, not on social
media,” he said.
