Muhammadu Jibrilla, Governor of Adamawa State

Gov. Muhammadu Jibrilla of Adamawa has said that his administration had fulfilled more than 50 percent of its campaign promises to the electorate.

Jibrilla said this on Thursday in Yola while flagging-off the Yola-Yolde-Pâté road project.

Jibrilla said that his administration was committed to service delivery, particularly in areas of infrastructure, agriculture and health care.

“We are here to work for you and not to give excuses; you are the masters and we are your servants.

“What you want is what we are doing, while the only thing we want from you is support and prayers to continue to succeed,” Jibrilla said.

Also speaking at the occasion, the Lamido of Adamawa, Alhaji Barkindo Mustapha, and the Speaker of Adamawa House of Assembly, Alhaji Kabiru Mijinyawa, lauded the governor for his commitment to delivering on his campaign promises.

They assured the governor of mobilising the people to support him.

The state APC chairman, Alhaji Ibrahim Bilal, also commended the governor for making the party proud.

“Your effort was in line with our great party manifesto in meeting the yearnings and aspirations of the electorate,” Bilal said.

Apart from the Yola-Yolde-Pate road, Gov. Jibrilla also launched the work on Vunuk-Lang road in Girei Local Government area.

FG berates US congressman over comment

Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information and Culture Photo: Femi Ipaye/PM News The Federal Government has described as sadly out of tune with reality the published letter from US Congressman Tom Marino to Secretary of State John Kerry, asking the US to withhold security assistance to Nigeria on the strength of some imaginary infraction by the Buhari Administration. In a statement issued in Abuja on Sunday, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said Congressman Marino was poorly informed about the issues he commented on, wondering why he did not take the pains to get first hand information from the US Embassy in Nigeria or any other credible source before engaging in what is nothing but a ‘propaganda of his own imagination’.
