Only a dead man will not know when rain falls because the blind can feel and the deaf can see. Governor Bala is surely a reputable man of Character and is humble to serve and not to rule. Get the difference.
Dankwambo is hardworking, experienced and dedicated.

Dankwambo42019: ALHAJI IBRAHIM HASSAN DANKWAMBO: A BETTER CHOICE BEFORE NIGERIANS?
It is true that a golden fish has no hiding place. The professional, political and public service career of national and global leaders are always in public domain. Their performance or lack of it stands them out as the populace, public affairs analysts and social affairs commentators are wont to publicly and vocally assess their varied contributions to the socio-economic wellbeing of the citizenry at large.
The above musing aptly describes the dynamic and highly resourceful Governor of Gombe state, Dr Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo, FCIB, FCA, OON, (Talban-Gombe) within the backdrop of a higher calling that is currently tolling its bell on him ahead of 2019. For the consummate technocrat, cerebral chartered accountant and super-achieving administrative helmsman par excellence, much has been written and chronicled on his superb and superlative infrastructural and developmental exploit as well as his groundbreaking reforms both in Gombe state as the incumbent chief executive officer and the office of the Accountant General of the Federation that have repositioned and recalibrated the said offices for a more credible, responsive and efficient service delivery to the people and the nation at large.
Much of the publicity has been unsolicited as the unassuming and largely self-effacing Talban Gombe believes in silent and unheeded achievements, with solid and indelible administrative reforms and infrastructural projects on ground to speak for themselves rather than engaging in undue media hype or sensational headlines that are the province of many a politician.
However, much as Dankwambo might want to avoid the public limelight, his tremendous and all-encompassing performance at various levels of governance and administration has attracted unprecedented adulation and encomiums to the extent that no less an influential and prescient man of God, the famed Catholic prelate, Father Ejike Camilus Mbaka, has predicted that the 2019 presidential mandate rests squarely on the broad shoulders of the highly respected Gombe state helmsman. The revered cleric did not mince words while prophesying that Dankwambo has the wherewithal to take Nigeria decisively and unerringly out of the woods of despair, despondency and decay that the APC-led federal government has plunged it since coming to power on May 29, 2015.
In an unequivocal and straightforward celestial pontification, Father Mbaka predicted that the savvy and articulate Dankwambo will inherit the presidential crown in order to repeat the magic that he has performed in Gombe state and at the federal level in order to bring the country closer to the standard of living and economic attainment of advanced countries in the global comity of nations; no more, no less. With the pronouncement of the Catholic priest who is renowned for the authenticity and fecundity of his prophecies and who has never for once met Dankwambo in person, the whole political configuration, calculation and permutations for 2019 has been inexorably altered.
At the moment, the vast majority of the nation’s citizenry are lining up, locked in step behind the fortuitous and auspicious candidacy of the Gombe political wonder who defied all imaginable odds to emerge the only re-elected PDP governor in the whole of the North despite the fact that the rival APC swept the region in a massive tsunami during the 2015 general election.
Indeed, the Peoples Democratic Party leadership seems galvanized by Father Mbaka’s earth-shaking prediction affirming that Dankwambo is eminently qualified to assume the mantle of presidential leadership at any time and that his candidacy must come as a huge relief for legions of the party’s faithful as well as millions of ordinary Nigerians who are craving for a credible alternative to the directionless leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari and his fellow travelers in APC. Without doubt, the last man standing, as Talban is affectionately referred to, won in Gombe on the basis of merit, hardwork, competence and exemplary performance.
He touched the lives of the people of the state in all material spheres, be it in road infrastructure, health, education, power, water supply, rural development, agriculture, manpower development and women or youth empowerment. All these sectors have been decisively and positively affected by Dankwambo’s No-Citizen-Left-Behind policy. All the eleven local government areas of the state have felt the impact of the visionary leadership of the governor. For instance, immediately after the 2015 elections, the first set of roads that were constructed Dankwambo where in the enclave of his defeated APC gubernatorial rival, Alhaji Inuwa Yahaya This was in consonance with admirable mantra of Politics Without Bitterness of the Talban Gombe.
Indeed, the infrastructural revolution embarked upon by the indefatigable governor has been unprecedented throughout the nation, dwarfing those of Lagos, Rivers, Akwa Ibom among others, on an income per capital ratio, given the fact that Gombe State receives a paltry N2 billion per annum as federal allocation compared to the over N15-N30 billion naira received annually by the aforementioned oil-producing states.
Tens of thousands of kilometers of urban and rural roads have been completed while a lot more are under construction. Hundreds of hospitals, maternity and health centres, primary, secondary and Arabic schools have been either constructed or rehabilitated with adequate supply of hospital equipment, drugs, desks, chairs and laboratory equipment respectively. In the agriculture sector, tremendous progress has been attained with fertilizer, seedlings, farm implements, tractors, harvesters, planters, sprayers and many more supplied or leased to agrarian farmers at highly subsidized rates to boost agricultural production in the Jewel of the Savannah.
Dankwambo’s youth and women empowerment programme is also a complement to his development agenda for the state as tens of thousands of women and youths have been trained in fish farming, rabbit and poultry production, bee keeping, hair dressing, barbing, sewing, tying and dying, soap making, as well as confectionary skills.
All these are geared towards enhancing their income-generating and self-sustenance status. Thousands of graduates and other categories of staff have been employed in the Gombe State public service ever since the Talban Gombe assumed office on May 29, 2011.
Indeed, to catalogue the length, breadth and scope of the landmark administrative, infrastructural and developmental exploits of the Last Man Standing is beyond the breadth of this treatise, but it is fair to surmise that the nation needs, as a matter of urgency, the leadership sagacity of Governor Dankwambo, as well as his depth of experience, vision, vigour and fortitude to pilot the ship of the Nigerian State to safer and calmer shores come 2019.
Highbrow: I have seen a lot of people make this statement "vote Buhari out and vote who in?" and I wonder over their senselessness and lack of love for this country.
One of the implications of this statement is that Buhari is the ONLY one who can rule Nigeria well. Well, I think it is stupid to assume that it is only Buhari that can rule this country well when we have over 160 million Nigerians.
Another implication of this is that since the assumption is Buhari is the only one who can rule this country well, he should rule forever. This is too emotional and stupid! We are not at Buhari's mercy.
Remember that Buhari won the election just because Nigerians as a people got tired of Jonathan even though Nigerians were head over heels in love with him in the beginning!
This is what we are talking about, Governors who will defend and stand in the gab, make history and leave behind legacies that the young ones can emulate from.
BayelsaLegacy: The road is named after the first elected Governor of Bayelsa State. It is one of the most strategic road in the heart of Yenagoa Bayelsa State.
Some people just vow to wake up in the morning and piss people off with empty speeches with no positive message, Good thing PDP is coming back to take its place.
UcheSecondus: Address of the PDP National Chairman Prince Uche Secondus at the inauguration of the Ekiti State Governorship Campaign Council at the Party Hqs Wadata Plaza, Abuja on Monday' JUNE 4, 2018.
Protocols.
May I in the name of God, the omnipotent welcome you all to this very important gathering marking the inauguration of our party's campaign council for the July, 14, 2018 gubernatorial election in Ekiti state.
The caliber of names drawn up as members of this council shows in an unmistaken terms the importance the party attaches to this exercise.
Ekiti state means so much to our party because of the strategic position it occupies in that geopolitical region and the fact that it's a test run election ahead of Osun state governorship election in September and the general elections in less than one year from now.
Ordinarily given the enviable achievements of our party in the state in the area of delivering democracy dividend to the people in the last three years under the leadership of our able irrepressible Chairman of PDP Governors Forum, Chief Peter Ayodele Fayose, Ekiti should be a smooth contest for us, but intelligence available to the party shows that the All Progressives Congress, APC is planning in their own words to "capture Ekiti at all cost"
Part of the costs has started manifesting with the shooting carried out at their own rally on Thursday last week which happened to be a continuation of the violence they launched on themselves and the state since their primaries last month.
Because of their desperation, a hitherto peaceful state of Ekiti has been turned into a war zone for a party whose electoral presence in the state is very negligible if any at all. Your Excellences, this campaign council has a gigantic task of achieving one thing, to ensure that the electoral desires of Ekiti people are realized.
Your work basically is to harness the aspirations of Ekiti people and ensure that their will prevail.
Recently I have had to challenge President Muhammadu Buhari to be at the forefront for the campaign for one-man-one vote ahead of 2019 because the indicators out there are not palatable.
The signs are there for all to see that the attitude of the ruling party is that of a drowning man desperate to survive and whose posture is 'if I cannot make it let me go down with others'
The heightened heat in the polity right now in the country is unnecessary if the APC administration is willing and equipped to face the electorates, but where it's obvious that they have nothing to offer to get the votes of Nigerians, they are resorting to all devious means to undermine the democratic process.
Information available to us shows that in Ekiti, they are trying to use all skillful underhand means to achieve goals but the people are well charged to not only come out to cast their votes on July 14 but that they are ready to defend it. At this juncture, let me warn that if there is any attempt to thwart the will of the people in Ekiti state, there may be no general election and the entire democratic process will be in endangered.
I recall drawing the attention of APC recently to the negative aspect of our history associated with trying to obstruct the will of the people as willingly expressed through the ballot box. I tried to let them know that Ekiti state shares in that history when the then second republic ruling National Party of Nigeria NPN attempted to use their federal controlled might to hijack power from the then Unity Party of Nigeria UPN that was on ground in the old Ondo state for which Ekiti was part.
Men of wisdom had long told us that the easy way to repeat history is to refuse to learn from it. I charge APC leadership to take time and read our political history and know that the route they are headed are akin to that of the NPN days if not worse. APC has no positive record in Ekiti state to warrant their thinking that they could win election and they know this as a fact.
We are aware of the scheming going by the ruling party to connive with the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC, to rig election and the commission should brace up for the consequences that accompany such despicable act.
I wish therefore to call on the international community and all lovers of democracy to show more than passing interest in what is going on in Nigeria today and watch as our democracy is being violated and ambushed.
In this country now, the opposition and anybody holding dissenting views from that of the small clique of persons hanging on to power today have been marked either to be framed up for criminal offenses or for corruption.
A sitting Governor in Rivers state, Nyesom Wike had cried out recently that there is attempt to assassinate him but his case was treated with levity only for Nigerians to witness a high profiled failed assassination attempt in Ekiti last week at a rally.
PDP is also privy to a very strong rumour of a secret grand plan of the APC government where a special killer squad is being trained and armed to kill opponents and disperse rallies especially in the area where they expect PDP rallies to intimidate their own.
The motive of all these deliberate Police state being established by the ruling party is obvious; to distract and disorganize the opponent to enable them hold on to power and establish one party state.
Never, not even in the draconian days of the military rule was number three citizen of the country and an incumbent governor framed up for armed robbery. This government has become a frame up administration. Senator Rabiu Kwakwaso's aide was locked for weeks where they were searching for things to frame him up; Senators Dino Melaye and Shehu Sani have all been framed up for being vocal against unjust system being perpetuated by this administration government.
The deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu has had his guest house ransacked where they were looking for something to frame him up.
Despite their immunities, Governor Wike has had to seek court protection to halt search in his house. Governor Fayose has just alerted the nation of plans to frame him up in the APC rally shooting. Nigerians should watch and be ready for the sacrifice to save not just our democracy but the country. What is however certain is that victory is ours in the end because Nigeria cannot afford this APC journey any longer.
We hear that they want to know where we are deriving our confidence and our response to them is that our power comes from God the giver and taker of all things and to the people of Nigeria who are distraught with the underwhelming level of governance in the country in the last three years.
Your Excellences, I wish you result filled exercise and I therefore inaugurate the council. Prince Uche Secondus National Chairman of PDP
There is no need for comparism because every body knows that Buhari cannot stand Dankwambo, though young but talented in so many areas of specification, Dankwambo is an administrator, a motivational speaker, a humanitarian, he is just indescribable, nooooooo, the difference is too much. #Dankwambo2019 #RightManRightChoice
Adurofight: ROAD TO 2019; Muhammadu Buhari Versus Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo; . President Muhammadu Buhari hails from Katsina State( NorthWest) while Governor Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo hails from Gombe State( NorthEast) . President Buhari is 75 years of age while Dankwambo is 57 years of age. . President Buhari's education qualifications is a controversial O'level result and the certificate he obtained when he schooled at United States Army War college in Carlisle Pennsylvania, United States in the 80s. While Dankwambo graduated from Ahmadu Bello University in 1985 with a degree in Accounting. He obtained a Master of Science degree in Economics from the University of Lagos in 1992 and a PhD in Accounting from Igbinedion University. . President Buhari was a former Military head of state in the 80s with no meaningful achievements. As the president of Nigeria in a democratic era, Base on fact, Figures and record, His administration remain the worst since 1999 while Governor Dankwambo was a former Accountant General of the federation with clean record since his 40s. Base on his achievements on Infrastructures, Health, Education, Workers welfarism etc, He was rated as the best Northern Governor in year 2015 by Vanguard Newspaper. Again, He won the award of Best Governor in Nigeria in year 2015 from Leadership Newspaper. Whereas, No Newspaper, international body or non Governmental organization has ever rated Buhari's military regime as the best in the history of Nigeria. . President Buhari is not medically fit, He had been receiving Medical treatment abroad since 80s while Governor Dankwambo is medically fit without health challenges. Base on Health ground, He has never jet out of the country for Once. . According to records, Many divisive, Violence, inciting and controversial statement has been traced to President Buhari in the past. E.g Buhari promised to fight for Sharia Law in Year 2001 if elected as the president, "Dog and Baboon will be Soak inside blood" A Statement Buhari made when he lost year 2011 poll to Goodluck Jonathan. This statement alone leads to lost and destruction of lives and properties in Northwest in year 2011. "Abacha is a good president, He's not corrupt" A statement Buhari made during Late Sani Abacha's remembrance day in year 2008. Again, History can never forget the day Buhari described Northerners as 97% and the remaining tribes as 5% in year 2015. Lastly Buhari declared IPOB as a terrorist group while he hails Fulani herdsmen killer and describe them as a good citizen of Nigeria etc. All these made many Nigerians to believe that President Buhari is a religious bigots and a First Class tribalist. People believe he lacks what it takes to rule a multi cultural and Multi religious society like Nigeria successfully. Meanwhile, No divisive, Derogatory, Inflammatory or inciting to violence statement, Quotes or comments have been traced to Governor Ibrahim Dankwambo in the past. He's a detribalize Nigerian. He's not a tribalist and he's not a religious bigots. His Education background said it all. . President Buhari belongs to analog age. His utterances, Manner of approach, Mentality, style of leadership, etc. belongs to 19th century. As a matter of fact, He cannot operate any social media platform. He's running from presidential media chat because of his intellectual ability to give perfect and suitable answers to questions that will be ask by Newsmen . MeanWhile, Governor Dankwambo belongs to Digital age. He's a man with Modern ideas and mentality. He has given meaning to Governance in Gombe State in this 21st Century. As a matter of fact, He operates all his social media accounts by himself. He tweets and post of facebook on daily basis. . President Buhari is a man who cannot think by himself. His remote control is in the hands of the invisible cabals in Aso Rock and some political godfather. While Governor Dankwambo is a man who is self dependent. He doesn't have any political godfather. Despite the tsunami of Change that engulfed many PDP candidates in the North 3 years ago, He remain the only PDP Governor that won his reelection bid without the support of President Buhari. He won with a wide margin despite obvious threat by his immediate predecessor who is now a Senator under APC. The gap Governor Dankwambo used to defeat his opponent in year 2015, It is more than what Aregbesola used to defeat Senator Iyiola Omisore in Osun State in year 2014 Guber race. . Prior to year 2015 presidential election, it was revealed that 2.8billon dollars was missing under General Buhari when he was the former Minister of petroleum under General Olusegun Obasanjo in year 1977. Till Today, he cannot account for the missing money. Meanwhile, Since Dankwambo's days as the Accountant General of the federation till now, He has never been accused wrongly by EFCC, He has never been indicted for fraud or Embbelzement of public funds by his political enemies or Government officials. He has never been in the watchlist of EFCC or any security agency. I am not saying he's a saint, Only God is perfect. This is one of the reasons why Dankwambo stand out among other PDP presidential aspirants When compare to Dr. Sule Lamido and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. . In Nigeria today, We cannot point out to any visible achievements of General Buhari as a military head of state in the 80s. He has no achievement in the Education sector, Health, power, Agriculture, security etc. As a president in the Democratic dispensation, As of today, We cannot point out to any visible projects initiated, constructed, completed and commissioned by President Buhari. Meanwhile in Gombe State, The education sector of the State remain the best in the Northeastern part of Nigeria today. Dankwambo has performed exceedingly well in the Health sector, Agricultural sector, Security and other sectors in the State. These are audible to the deaf and visible to the eye. . According to record, President Buhari's administration in 3 years has borrowed more than what PDP borrowed in 16years. PDP borrowed 6trillon naira in 16years while Buhari's Government borrowed 11 trillion naira within 3years with no reasonable achievements to show for it. Meanwhile in Nigeria today, Gombe State is one of the best managed State among the 36 States of Federal Republic of Nigeria. Gombe State is one of the states that Collected the lowest federal allocation on Monthly basis from the purse of Federal Government. Gombe, Ekiti and Ebonyi State are in the same Shoe. Despite this, the level of Development in Gombe State is far better than that of Ebonyi and Ekiti State. As at today, Gombe State is not owing workers a penny when compare to many States that collects huge allocation than Gombe State e.g Osun, Oyo, Ekiti and other States in the Southern part of Nigeria. With little resources, The State is the fastest developing State among the Northeastern States. Despite all these, The amazing fact is that Gombe State is among the State with lowest debt profile in Nigeria today. All these are attributed to the transparency, Integrity and financial prudence of Governor Ibrahim Dankwambo. As an accountant, He knows how to plan and manage a little resources to achieve a meaningful things. . On security, It is an obvious facts that Nigeria is not secure under President Buhari. Bokoharam are still active under this administration. IPOB agitation also set in. The dead Niger/Delta Avengers also resurrected under Buhari and Fulani herdsmen killers are on rampage killing everybody. Buhari failed to use his experience as a former Military man to combat the insecurity challenges facing the country. Meanwhile, Gombe State on the other hand is one of the peaceful States in Nigeria despite being a Northern State. As of today, The State remains the most safest States in the NorthEast when compare to its contemporaries like Yobe, Adamawa, Taraba and Bauchi. Base on record, Bokoharam has never strike for once in Gombe State. Despite the fact that almost 50% of Gombe State population is dominated by Fulani people, As at today, There is no single record of Fulani herdsmen killing in Gombe State. If we blame the Governor of Benue State for the insecurity challenges bedeviling Benue State today, then Governor Hassan Dankwambo deserves praises, encomium and accolades for the peace and tranquility Gombe people are enjoying under his administration when compare to neighbouring states. . In a nutshell, Governor Dankwambo and president Buhari are incomparable. Dankwambo is a man that have everything president Buhari lacks. Dankwambo defeat Buhari in every areas. He remain the best among all the aspirants who are jostling for the post of presidency in year 2019. . Fellow Nigerians, I present to you the best Alternative to President Buhari in year 2019. His name is Governor Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo, The executive Governor of Gombe State. . God bless Nigeria(Amen) . # Adurofight !!! . Email; temitopeaduroja90@gmail.com
Truly actions speak louder than voice, keep rolling,we shall take back Nigeria from the hands of the oppressors.
