The Leadership of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) Adamawa State Council has extended its heartfelt congratulations to Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri on his re-election.
The council in a statement jointly signed by the Chairman and the Secretary, Ishaka Donald Dedan and Fidelis Jockthan, respectively said that Fintiri's resounding victory at the just concluded poll represents a bold and emphatic testimony to his unprecedented development agenda, particularly in urban renewal projects, empowerment programmes and rural infrastructure among other sectors.
"The peoples' power as manifested during the election remained the most potent force in any democracy and such victory should be viewed as a triumph for collective progress of the people of Adamawa state". It explained.
"Certainly, this glowing and irrefutable 430, 861, votes, the electorate have sent a strong message that they have chosen to continue under his revolutionary programmes and policies that have already re-invented history by showcasing Adamawa to the global world". The Council said.
The NUJ prayed that the Governor-elect should sustain the tempo by even extending hands of fellowship to the oppositions in consolidating on the gains earlier achieved.
It said" As apolitical union, we would not hesitate to propagate the ideals of any Government of the day particularly when it encapsulated its principles based on a formidable peaceful co-existance, Human and Capital development, Education, Health, Agriculture and a robust economy".
It equally commended the electoral umpire, the Independent National Electoral Commission ( INEC) for upholding the people's will, even amidst pressure, as demonstrated in the outcome of April 18th 2023 Gubernatorial re-run election.
