Gov. Ahmadu Fintiri of Adamawa has described the 2023 governorship election in the state as a serious setback for Nigeria’s democratic process.
Fintiri made the remark on Monday in Yola at the unveiling of a book titled “Fintiri: The Man They Could Not Stop”, written by veteran journalist, Solomon Kumangar.
He said the election exposed treachery, moral compromise and desperate opportunism among members of the political elite.
“In 2023, we saw treachery, assault and the moral compromise of a bankrupt elite masked as patriots.
“The poll revealed coordinated attempts to undermine the will of the Adamawa people through electoral manipulation,” he said.
The governor said that although the experience was challenging, it demonstrated the resilience of Adamawa citizens and supporters across the country.
He noted that the book focuses on the controversial 2023 Adamawa governorship election, during which the suspended Resident Electoral Commissioner, Hudu Yunusa-Ari, illegally declared the APC candidate, Sen. Aishatu Binani, winner before the completion of collation.
He added that the action was swiftly nullified by the national headquarters of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Fintiri endorsed the book as the author’s account of events, stressing that others were free to document alternative perspectives.
He described Kumangar as a skilled writer with deep insight, despite admitting he had not read the book, adding that the 2023 election was not the end of the story..See More
Favor As Higher Power?
(The hidden truth)
Some positions in life cannot be held or retained for long if you are not favored. Favor is higher power. You are not the only one desiring, deserving, connected, powerful or qualified. Some positions in life, opportunities, success, achievements, triumphs, selection, approvals, power and position, elevation, patronage, etc, are mainly through favor. Favor is silent, spiritual and higher power. For spiritual guidance, other solutions, call/Whatsapp Dr J.A. Faros on 07030514063. With God, all are possible.
