A governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Gombe, Jamilu Isyaku Gwamna, has boosted the 2019 campaign of President Muhammadu Buhari and the APC flag bearer in the state with the donation of a Marcopolo bus.
Report has it that Gwamna, who said on Sunday, January 13, that the donation followed his promise to ensure that President Buhari and Alhaji Inuwa Yahaya win in the forthcoming polls.
The aspirant, who defected to the APC after the primary election of the PDP in the state, praised Buhari for fighting corruption, managing the resources of Nigeria and repositioning the country on the diplomatic map.
“I am donating this bus not because I want anything back but because I have a special interest in the wellbeing of Nigerians and to also show to the world that I am a man of my word. I promised to work for President Buhari and Alhaji Inuwa; this is the fulfilment of that promise and there is no going back.
“APC is our party and victory must be collectively sought. I am only contributing my quota for a cause I strongly believe is in the interest of Nigerians and Gombe state.
“The present APC administration has taken the fight against corruption to the looters, saved over $43 billion as foreign reserve and that is being projected to hit $60 billion in 2019 because the President is honest.
“In the face of the forthcoming elections, one would have expected the reserve to drop as usual, but there is a change in that regard.
“Today, our rating at the international level in terms of diplomatic relationship has tremendously improved because of the transparency of the president and the APC led-administration.
This is why I am supporting the president and there is no going back,” he said.
