I don’t think that it is proper for any loyal APC member to impose, to enforce or to conspire a falsification of President Muhammadu Buhari’s projection about the Distinguished Senator Aishatu Dahiru Ahmed Binani, the Adamawa state APC governorship candidate being addressed as the Governor-In-Waiting.
If the President has not seen the governorship potential in her, the restoration of Adamawa electorates confidence in the APC governance with her, he would not have addressed her as the Governor-In-Waiting.
Is it not for her sake that PDP, the rather temporary ruling party in the state would have to eliminate, by substituting a male deputy governor with a female candidate?
It is laughable to hear the chronic-know-no-law praying that as it has the judgment passed onto Taraba governor’s case, so shall the court determine the Binani case to be disgraced of her candidature; the no baked political desperado, arrogating to themselves the jurist responsibility, declaring judgement away from the court, without the law.
The point remains that to defeat APC from reclaiming the Dougirei Hill in Adamawa state, is to deny Binani from flying the APC ticket. The obvious isn’t far-fetched, considering the fascinating popularity she keeps gaining virtually every minute.
The women and youth groups we engaged in the Binani conversation have a final vocabulary for which as one relatively inclined to ironism, I found impressively not misleading that Binani would pick the governorship ticket even if the primaries were to be conducted tenfold.
“…You know it, the Sai Matan Nan slogan has taken the political centre stage in Adamawa state. It has neutralized the nauseating political nuisance and performance exaggeration.
“As electorates who remain obedient to the law and legal authority, we are patiently waiting for the judgement that unlike others, we do not have the capacity to declare,” the women groups would reaffirm.
