The All Progressives Congress governorship candidate in Adamawa State, Aisha Dahiru Ahmed, popularly known as Binani, has delivered her acceptance speech despite the controversy that trailed the declaration of the election result by the Resident Electoral Commissioner.
The state Resident Electoral Commissioner, Hudu Yunusa, had declared Binani the winner of the state governorship poll.
The Independent National Electoral Commission has however overturned the declaration and also invited Yunusa to Abuja.
In the video that was shared on social media, Binani said that the President
Muhammadu Buhari has made history by her election as the first female governor in Nigeria.
She said, “His excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR, you have made history in electing the first female governor in our country.
“This will no doubt broaden political participation by encouraging our daughters, sisters, aunties, mothers and indeed the girl child.”
