Adamawa State Governor, Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, has addressed growing speculation about a possible defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC), saying his political future would be guided by the wishes of the people
Speaking with journalists, Fintiri said politics is about serving the people and that he would not resist any decision supported by the majority of Adamawa residents.
“There are a lot of rumours about whether I will defect to the APC or not. If that is the wish of my people, I will not object because politics is all about the people,” he said.
The governor criticised what he described as “political merchants” fuelling tension around the issue, accusing them of acting out of fear and self-interest.
“There are people making noise, political merchants, who are treacherous and afraid. I am coming with value, prosperity, and strength to add to wherever we are going,” Fintiri stated.
He emphasised that his administration has built strong grassroots support through development projects, infrastructure, and investments in human capital across the state.
“Adamawa is secure because we have built organic connections through development and infrastructure, particularly in human capital. If my people say I should stay, I will stay, and I will win,” he added.https://urbanexpresslive.com/wishes-of-the-people-remain-final-joining-the-apc-fintiri-tells-adfamawa-voters/
Fintiri maintained that his government’s performance would ultimately determine its political success, stressing that the delivery of dividends of democracy remains his priority.
“Wherever we go, the most important thing is that we have delivered, and we are going to win,” the governor said.
