In the heart of northern Nigeria, where the winds of change whisper promises of progress, a groundswell of hope is building around one man: Rev. Dr. Benjamin C. Mamman. As whispers turn to roars across Kaduna State, the clarion call is unmistakable; it’s time for Dr. Mamman to lead.
And if the fervent endorsements pouring in are any indication, 2027 could mark the dawn of a truly transformative era for this vibrant state.
Hajia Hafsat Y. Soso, a respected voice in Kaduna’s political and community circles, doesn’t mince words when it comes to Dr. Mamman. In an exclusive interview with Tgnews, she painted a vivid picture of a leader whose impact has already rippled through the state, even without the weight of official office.
“The overwhelming support that Hon. Dr. Benjamin Mamman is receiving from the people of Kaduna State is a clear testimony of their satisfaction and happiness with the remarkable achievements he has recorded across key sectors of the state, even as a private individual,” Hajia Hafsat declared, her voice brimming with conviction.
It’s no exaggeration. Dr. Mamman, a reverend doctor and stalwart of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), the coalition party that’s fast becoming a beacon for change has quietly but powerfully touched lives in education, healthcare, youth empowerment, and economic development.
From grassroots initiatives that have lifted families out of poverty to advocacy for climate resilience and interfaith harmony, his track record speaks volumes.
“Hajia Hafsat believes that Dr. Mamman at the helm of the affairs of Kaduna State will catapult the state to its destiny,” sources close to the movement affirm, echoing her unshakeable faith.
But this isn’t just rhetoric; it’s a rallying cry rooted in reality. Kaduna, a powerhouse in northern politics and home turf to ADC heavyweights like former Governor Nasir El-Rufai, has seen its share of trials; from economic hurdles to social divides.
Yet, as Hajia Hafsat puts it, “This is not about religion now. We have tested all, and all of us from the different faiths in Kaduna State have seen it. It’s now left for us to go for the capacity, a leader for all.” She pauses, then adds with a knowing smile, “I, Hon. Hafsat, can beat my chest on this project, knowing who Dr. Benjamin Mamman is. He’ll be a governor for all.”

”The enthusiasm is palpable, spilling over from market squares in Zaria to youth gatherings in Kaduna North. Men and women, young and old, from every corner of the state are drumming their support for his candidacy in the 2027 gubernatorial race, so nobody should be left behind, she said.
“He truly deserves our total support to lead this generation toward complete liberation and to guide us to the promised land,” Hajia Hafsat urged. “I know and I believe in Rev. Dr. Benjamin Mamman. I know he’ll deliver. I don’t have any iota of doubt in me.”
Rev. Dr. Mamman himself, ever the humble servant-leader, has teased his intentions with a quiet resolve. As a hopeful flag bearer for the ADC, he’s no stranger to the political arena, but this feels different, like a homecoming.
“Indeed, there is hope in every new beginning, and every new day brings a fresh opportunity,” he shared in a recent statement. “Hence, we join all the people of Kaduna State in celebrating this renewed hope.”
For Kaduna, strapped between its rich cultural tapestry and pressing modern challenges, Dr. Mamman’s vision isn’t just welcome, it’s essential. Imagine a state where innovation bridges divides, where youth aren’t just heard but empowered, and where prosperity isn’t a distant dream but a daily reality. That’s the liberation in sight, and with voices like Hajia Hafsat’s leading the charge, it’s closer than ever.
As 2027 looms on the horizon, the message from Kaduna’s streets is clear: Unite in sincerity and purpose. Rally behind Dr. Mamman. The promised land awaits, and he’s the guide we need. Will Kaduna seize this moment? The people say yes. Loudly.
