I’ve Returned Mandate Which Nyako Stole Back To PDP – Acting Governor

The Acting
Governor of Adamawa State, Alhaji
Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, has visited the
national leadership of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, and declared
that he has returned the mandate from
recently removed governor of the state,
Admiral Murtala Nyako (rtd).
He also pledged his unalloyed loyalty to
the national leadership of the party.
Fintiri, who spoke with journalists after
a closed-door meeting with the deputy
national chairman of PDP, Prince Uche
Secondus, at Legacy House, Abuja,
further declared that his swearing-in as
acting governor marked the restoration
of PDP to the people of Adamawa State.
He said, “As a loyal and obedient party
member, I came on a courtesy call to my
party and the National Working
Committee, NWC, as my first assignment
after the battle to remove Governor
Nyako who had stolen the mandate of
the PDP under which he was elected for
eight years”.
He continued, “I came here to bring back
the mandate and I have handed over to
them the mandate. I promise that I will
work together with the party, its
leadership, the people of Adamawa to
ensure that our party is restored to the
people”.
The PDP national leadership promised to
give the acting governor all the support
he needs, noting that Nyako’s
impeachment would cleanse the rot the
people of the state had experienced.
The National Publicity Secretary of PDP,
Chief Olisa Metuh, expressed confidence
that Fintiri would restore dignity to the
party and tackle “the rot and the
damage caused the party by former
governor Nyako”.
