Chairman of PDP Bashar Ward,Alhaji Adamu Gizo welcomed all the invited guests as well as expressed his happiness for the wonderful day of liberation of the people of Unguwan Burmawa in Bashar town from the shackle of neglect and intimidation they have suffered for a long time under the APC.

The chairman further said that With their coming to PDP the struggle of self determination and enhancement has no limit in PDP while urging them to feel free to associate with old members as they are now one.

Earlier the chairman of the decampees, Abdulkareem Barde said that they decided to joined PDP because it is the only party that create enabling environment for job creation which the APC have denied the people making them to live in hunger. They promised to work assiduously in changing APC and restoring the old days of robust wealth creation.

In his remark the PDP chairman Wase LGA, Alh. Nasiru Abba said he is the happiest person receiving such amiable defectors into his party. He urged them to join hands to rebuild the party.

The special guest of honour of the event Alh. Salisu Jarman Kampani said that APC is nothing but deceit that can only lead to misery and therefore encouraged the decampees to have faith in their new party as it is the only party that can lead to prosperity.

Mohammed Abubakar Badu (Dan-Malikin Wase) represented by Abdulhamid Musa Kaya (PDP councillorship candidate Bashar ward) expressed his joy on the event and called on the electorate to prepare their voters card ahead of 2019 with the aim of chasing APC out of power. He challenged the APC to mention any project initiated and completed by them from 2015 to date except disregard to rule of law and promotion of thuggery as exemplified in snatching of mace in the national assembly.

A House of Representatives Aspirant for Wase Federal Constituency under the PDP, Alh. Umar Suleiman Rabo (Barden Wase) represented by Dalhatu Garkuwan PDP Bashar district called on the decampees to come to terms with reality in joining hands to vote out the APC come 2019.
