Background
In the previous Senate elections, all three incumbent senators were returned with Abdullahi Ibrahim Gobir (APC-East) winning re-election with 54% of the vote and Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko (APC-Central) winning re-election with 54% as well while Ibrahim Abdullahi Danbaba (PDP-South) was returned after a court ruling later in 2019. The senatorial results were an example of the state's competitiveness as the APC won most House of Representatives seats and won a majority in the state House of Assembly but the PDP held the governorship even though Buhari won the state in the presidential election.
