Don’t Vote Gov Inuwa For Second Term, Chikere urges Gombe Voters
An Elder Statesman in Gombe, Lamido Umaru Chikere, has urged voters in the state against voting for the incumbent governor, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, for second term in the forthcoming 2023 general elections.
He made the plea while addressing a group of his supporters at his residence in Kumo the headquarters of Akko Local Government Area (LGA) of the state.
Chikere who was chief of staff to former Governor Muhammad Danjuma Goje, said Inuwa is not the type of governor that deserves a second term, adding that he has proven to be not good enough in his first four years and cannot deliver on the yearnings of the state.
He alleged that the state government under the All Progressives Congress (APC) has only succeeded in inflicting hardships on the people and will make the people suffer more if reelected.
Chikere said, “I have been in government and I know what governors do in their first term and what they intend to do if given another opportunity, so when I say I know what this governor will do if reelected is probably because I know from experience.
“So, I am warning and advising, don’t vote for Inuwa and it is for your own good. The governor has shown us all in his first four years that he doesn’t care, what are you expecting from his second term when he has nothing to lose.
“If you know that you are my supporter and follower, I want you to know that I have studied the situation and I am telling you that the APC candidate isn’t right choice for our state.
“We should not make the mistake of voting for him,” Chikere stated as he assured that there is a better candidate elsewhere in an opposition party in the state.
He added, “We should look beyond party and do the right thing for our state and population yet unborn.”
