Adamawa Acting Gov visits PDP’s secretariat, says ‘I have delivered’ Adamawa State Acting Governor, Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, yesterday stormed the Abuja National Secretariat of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), telling party leaders that “I have delivered”. Fintiri went ahead to tell the party chiefs that he had recovered and delivered the mandate stolen by ousted Governor Murtala Nyako to the ruling party. Speaking with reporters shortly after he had a closed door meeting with some of the national officials of the party, Fintiri said his emergency as governor had restored the state back to the PDP. The four-day-old Acting Governor said: “As a loyal and obedient party member, I came on a courtesy call to my party and the National Working Committee as my first assignment after the battle to remove Governor Nyako who had stolen the mandate of the PDP under which he was elected. “I came here to bring back the mandate and I have handed over to them (party leaders) the mandate. I promise that I will work together with the party, its leadership and the people of Adamawa to ensure that our party is restored to the people”. The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, stated that Fintiri would restore dignity to the party as well as address the rot and the damage caused the party by former Governor Nyako. He promised the Acting Governor the support and encouragement of the party’s leadership. The party’s National Deputy chairman, Prince Uche Secondus, who received Fintiri and his team said that the removal of Nyako and the emergence of the Acting Governor would help address the rot the people of the state had experienced.
