A report profiles Alhaji Babangida Umar, the lesser-known vice-presidential candidate on the Peoples Democratic Party's 2027 ticket alongside presidential candidate Senator Prof. Sandy Ojang Onor. The Independent National Electoral Commission's August publication of candidates' particulars placed the PDP ticket in the 2027 presidential field, and the PDP's own statement identified Umar as the vice-presidential candidate. Umar previously served as the PDP's National Vice Chairman, North-East, before his selection. The report notes that far less biographical detail is publicly available about Umar than about his running mate.
