Ahmed Aliyu, the incumbent APC governor, holds the leading position in trader consensus due to his party's unanimous endorsement as consensus candidate and ongoing initiatives to address insecurity through a new 2,596-member community guards corps and reestablishment of the Hisbah Corps. These steps, announced in mid-September 2026, build on his administration's focus on security and public services amid persistent banditry concerns. Manir Muhammad Dan Iya of the ADC trails as the main challenger, having publicly pressed for greater accountability on security spending and displacement issues. PDP internal divisions have produced competing candidates including Mustapha Shehu, fragmenting opposition support, while 19 total contenders registered with INEC reflect a crowded field where most face structural barriers to victory. Upcoming primary processes and campaign mobilization will likely influence further shifts before the 2027 vote.
