ABUBAKAR SARIKI DAHIRU

Abubakar Sarki Dahiru is a Nigerian politician representing the Lafia/Obi Federal Constituency of Nasarawa State in the House of Representatives. A member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), he served in the 2019–2023 term and has been active in constituency development. Dahiru is known for initiatives that directly impact his constituents, including donations of rams, food items, clothing, and cash during festive periods, as well as the provision of advanced diagnostic machines to local health facilities. These efforts underscore his focus on welfare, healthcare, and rural development. His tenure has also faced legal scrutiny; a tribunal at one point nullified his election victory in Lafia/Obi over reported irregularities, highlighting the complex electoral environment in Nasarawa. Despite this, Dahiru remains a prominent figure in the state’s political landscape, combining legislative duties with visible constituency engagement.
