Ngbale who spoke with journalists, said, Ngillari was not only the governorship candidate that can bring total victory to PDP in the State, but he is a symbol of unity, development, justice and rule of law.

“I want to inform you that Ngillari did not contribute one kobo to this money that we use to pay for this governorship form, it is the contribution of over 70 different groups that fused together that we their representative is today buying this form. He maintained.

“This is a clear indication that if a leader is not corrupt people know, politics is a game of the majority, so a cabal cannot over rule the decision of the majority because they find themselves in certain positions.

“If Ngillari is good to be deputy governor for over seven years, what is the reason that he is not good to be governor? He asked.

“Those that think Ngillari is good as a Senator, the people of Adamawa said he is better as Governor.

Ngbale recalled how a cabal wanted to stop President Goodluck Jonathan from taking over as President after the dead of President Umaru Ya’adua, it was the decision of majority of Nigerians that the cabal was disgrace from executing their plans to stop Jonathan.

“On behalf of this group I want to assured PDP and President Goodluck Jonathan that with Ngillari as the candidate of PDP for governorship, the President should not come to Adamawa for campaign, the least number of votes he will get from Adamawa is 1.5 million votes.

“This is because they people of the State irrespective of their religion and ethnic group, have united for Ngillari who we all see as the centre of harmony in the State. He stressed.
