Sokoto State Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, has won the Sokoto South senatorial district PDP primary election in the state.
Tambuwal aspires to represent about seven Local Government Areas in the Red Chamber come 2023.
The LGAs are Bodinga, Dange/Shuni, Kebbe, Shagari, Tambuwal, Tureta, and Yabo.
Recall that the governor, last week, stepped down for former vice president Atiku Abubakar at the presidential primary of the party held at the Eagle Square Abuja.
Governor Tambuwal had previously represented Tambuwal/Kebbe Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, where he rose to become the Speaker of the House in his third term.
Tambuwal will contest the position at the general election in 2023 against the incumbent Senator Danbaba Dambuwa, who defected from PDP to APC.
