As the battle for the October, 11th, 2014, bye election to replace the recent impeached governor of Adamawa State, Murtala Nyako, the Adamawa State chapter of a political group under the aegis of Solid Political Group of Nigeria (SPGN) has thrown its weight behind the ambition of Mallam Nuhu Ribadu to contest the governorship of the State.
The group in a press statement signed by the Leader of the group, Chief Medan Teneke, and made available to Viewpointnigeria, the group described the aspirant’s entry in the race as divine in the interest of the citizens of the State.
It reads, “Ribadu will provide the much needed sense of direction lacking in the State. He’s brilliant, passionate, humble, accommodating and his career records towers over everyone eyeing the seat.
Teneke who was a former Commissioner of Special Duties under impeached governor Murtala Nyako’s administration before they fell out, maintained that, the group is backing Ribadu following the conviction that he former EFCC boss, “clearly understands the mood on ground, challenges and expectations, and will hit the ground running by providing the people efficient leadership and direction needed to re-position the State on the path of regaining its lost glory.
The leader of the group who is also the Zonal Chairman of PDP, Adamawa South, assured that his group will deliver the southern Zone for PDP.
“The State is in dire need of a stabilizing agent and having followed Ribadu’s career trajectory, we have no doubt whatsoever that he will play that role in the State.
Stressing that as a grassroot group, they know when an ambition is driven by selfl or desire for selfless service, saying Ribadu’s is driven by the passion for selfless service.
It would be recalled that Teneke was the leader of the factional PDP that worked towards ensuring the removal of Governor Nyako from office.
