Nuhu Ribadu, pioneer chairman of
the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has handed over his campaign offices and
buses to the reelection bid of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Ribadu who sought and lost the
governorship ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2019 poll,
said the opponents of Buhari will be “roundly defeated”.
He said the February presidential
election is a referendum between a past that should forever be forgotten and a
new chapter of probity and accountability.
He spoke in Yola, Adamawa
capital, at a ceremony to hands off his gubernatorial campaign structure to
Buhari.
He said he and his supporters
would work assiduously to ensure the victory of
Buhari in Adamawa.
“There is consensus among
Nigerians of goodwill. Nobody wants return of those faces that are synonymous
with our failure as a country. We have moved on, we should not allow them to
dragged us back,” he said.

“For the past three years, EFCC
and others have been struggling to recover wealth stolen from this country
within just a few years. We are happy now that such wanton stealing is not
happening. We should not allow those who have no problem with stealing our
wealth to get back on the wheels.”
He said the people of Adamawa
have no reason not to support Buhari due to a number of achievements of the
administration.
“This state is a farming state.
Our farmers have been supported through Anchor Borrowers. We now have
fertilizer all over,” he said.
“In terms of infrastructure,
Adamawa is witnessing massive revolution. A number of roads are currently
ongoing in the state. We have never had it so good.
“Many communities in Adamawa
state were under Boko Haram occupation. The capital, Yola, was being threatened
but today everyone is at peace, all displaced persons have been relocated to
their towns.”
