Indeed Your Excellency has written your name in gold and entered the State’s record as a fearless leader, a legend and an emancipator of the indigenous peoples of Gongola region who have been under political eclipse for decades”
The Statement adds that;
“We congratulate Your Excellency, our Son, and ourselves for giving you our mandate. We believed in you and you have not failed us. We want to take the opportunity of this great success for the State to assure you of our unflinching support in the remaining years of your positively eventful tenure. To us, you are not only a State asset but a National one. GPF will stand by you in all you enduring policies and programmes. We must be quick to add too that because Your Excellency has proved himself worthy in the State, in the future, at whatever level you may wish to step out in your aspirations for our people, we assure you that our prayers and support shall be with you.
Your Excellency has demonstrated that politics in Nigeria can be a tool for good governance, progress and emancipation. Only a bankrupt leadership gives politics a bad name. Your people-oriented policies and projects are an incontrovertible proof that there are still exceptional leaders in Nigeria today and Your Excellency is foremost among them”.
