Ahead of March 18 governorship election, a support group has called on the people of Bauchi state to vote for All Progressives Congress (APC) gubernatorial candidate, Air Marshall Sadique Abubakar (rtd).
Friends of Air Marshall SB Abubakar told journalists at a press briefing in Kaduna Thursday that the immediate past Nigerian Chief of the Air Staff has the blueprint to change Bauchi state for the better and add value to the lives of the people of the state.
The group said the people of Bauchi state should count themselves lucky to have such a distinguished and honourable Nigerian in the person of Ambassador Abubakar in the state,who joined the race for the governorship in order to use his vast experience and leadership skills to leading the state to glory.
Convener of the group, Alhaji Iro Sardauna, said SB Abubakar “has the experience to provide the desired development and security in Bauchi state, which was still some few steps above the standard of a rural state before Abubakar as the then Chief of the Air Staff deployed his connection in government to bring lots of projects and infrastructure to the state.
“We are confident that the Bauchi people have already made up their minds to vote for Air Marshall Abubakar who has distinguished himself as a number one human being right from his early formative years, and whose generosity knew no bound to people irrespective of their backgrounds.
“We call on the incumbent Bauchi state governor of the PDP and his few supporters to honourably throw their weight behind Air Marshall Abubakar whose time has come, and to start preparing his hand over notes to ensure a seamless and brotherly power transition in the North-east state come May 2023,” the group said.
