Aminu Sani Jaji has successfully retained his position as the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the Kaura Namoda/Birnin Magaji Federal Constituency following a fresh primary election held on November 11, 2026. Jaji, the incumbent member of the House of Representatives, garnered a total of 26,646 votes, decisively defeating his nearest competitor, Hassan Dangaladima, who received 713 votes. The third candidate, Musa Zubairu, did not secure any votes during the election, which was conducted under the supervision of Kabiru Idris, the Chairman of the APC Electoral Committee for the primary.

The primary election was necessitated by a ruling from the Federal High Court in Abuja, which had annulled Jaji's earlier nomination and mandated the APC to hold a new primary within two weeks. This court order followed a suit filed by Dangaladima, who sought to contest the legitimacy of Jaji's nomination. In compliance with the court's directive, the APC's national headquarters organized the rerun, which saw a total of 27,389 party members accredited out of 42,266 registered members in the constituency, with 27,359 votes cast in total.S1

In the breakdown of the votes, Jaji received 14,264 votes from the Kaura Namoda Local Government Area and 12,382 votes from Birnin Magaji Local Government Area. Dangaladima's votes were split between the two areas, with 465 in Kaura Namoda and 248 in Birnin Magaji. The electoral committee confirmed that the primary adhered to all legal and party requirements, leading to Jaji's declaration as the winner.S1S2
