}}Babayo Garba Gamawa (born 2 February 1966) is a former businessman and was the 2011 Senator for the Bauchi North district of Bauchi State. He is affiliated with the People's Democratic Party (PDP).[1]

Political career

Babayo Garba Gamawa served as both the Deputy Governor and Speaker of the Bauchi State House of Assembly.[2] He became Deputy Governor of Bauchi when Alhaji Mohammed Garba Gadi was impeached from his position. When this impeachment was appealed and the original ruling was deemed unconstitutional, Gadi arrived at the offices to reclaim his seat. Gamawa refused to give up his seat and his supporters rioted in the street, saying "Gamawa is the authentic deputy governor." Gadi's supporters, however, proclaimed that "the owner has arrived, the pretender should roll up his mat." Gamawa would eventually concede and Gadi would reclaim his seat as Deputy Governor.[3][4]

In 2011, he was elected as the Bauchi North Senator for the 7th National Assembly.[1] He is the Vice-President of the Aviation Committee and a member of the Land Transport Committee.
