Kaka’s Grassroots Legacy Fuels Support in Kaduna North APC Race
As political activities gather momentum ahead of the next general elections, attention is turning to the Kaduna North Federal Constituency, where two aspirants have shown interest in contesting for the House of Representatives seat under the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Among the early contenders is Hon. Abdulazeez Abubakar Kaka, who began wide consultations on 26 March 2026, drawing a large crowd of supporters and well-wishers.
What stood out during the consultation visit was not just the turnout, but the composition of the people, many of which have directly benefited from his interventions over the years, including youths, women, artisans, traders, and families whose lives have been positively impacted through his initiatives.
Hon. Abdulazeez Abubakar Kaka is widely regarded as a grassroots politician who built his reputation through community development and social support. Through the Kowa Namu Foundation, he has implemented wide-ranging programs focused on empowerment, education, healthcare support, and economic development.
His interventions include:
* Donation of sewing machines, makeup kits, and welding machines to beneficiaries
* Donation of cars and motorcycles (bikes) to party faithfuls and supporters
* Free medical outreach programs conducted across different wards
* Sponsorship of students for JAMB and SSCE examinations across Kaduna North
* Graduation of over 3,000 students under his skill acquisition programme
* Empowerment of over 5,000 beneficiaries with grants and equipment
* Installation of solar streetlights across various wards in Kaduna
* Distribution of school bags and books to over 2,000 students
* Out-of-school enrollment support for over 1,000 less privileged children
* Securing over 30 federal and state appointments and fellowships for Kaduna residents
* Enrollment of residents under the KADCHMA health insurance scheme
Supporters also highlight his alignment with the Renewed Hope agenda championed by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and the developmental policies of Governor Uba Sani, of Kaduna State. His continued engagement in community development programs is viewed as part of broader efforts aimed at economic empowerment, social inclusion, and improved welfare delivery.
As the APC moves toward selecting its candidate, the party faces the task of presenting a contender who is both electable and deeply connected to the grassroots.
Supporters of Hon. Abdulazeez Abubakar Kaka believe his extensive record of empowerment, community trust, and development-focused interventions position him as a strong and competitive candidate for Kaduna North.
