Pantami Receives PDP Certificate of Return for 2027 Gombe Governorship Election

Former Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Ali Pantami, has received a Certificate of Return from the Peoples Democratic Party, confirming his status as the party’s governorship candidate for the 2027 election in Gombe State.

Pantami, who emerged as the PDP candidate on May 26, was presented with the certificate on Wednesday during the party’s National Executive Committee meeting and the inauguration of its 2026–2030 National Executive Committee at the PDP national headquarters in Abuja.

According to a statement issued by the Pantami Media Team, the event was presided over by the PDP National Chairman, Abdulrahman Mohammed.

The statement explained that the party used the occasion to present Certificates of Return to governorship candidates whose nominations had been recognised and published by the Independent National Electoral Commission as the PDP’s duly nominated candidates for the 2027 general elections.

Pantami was among the candidates presented with the certificates, a development the media team described as a formal confirmation of his position as the PDP’s officially recognised governorship candidate for Gombe State.

The presentation of the certificate marks a significant milestone in preparations for the 2027 governorship election and reinforces the party’s endorsement of Pantami’s candidacy.

Party leaders and supporters at the event expressed confidence in the PDP’s prospects ahead of the next general elections, as the party continues consultations and mobilisation efforts across the country.
