Despite his entry into the murky waters of Politics; Air Marshall Sadique Baba Abubakar (RTD) has remained a force to reckon with in the Bauch state political landscape. After his meritorious years as a military general and reaching the pinnacle of his career as the chief of air staff, he decided to heed the numerous calls of his people to delve into politics so they can enjoy the dividend of democracy. After months of consultation with stakeholders and top politicians within the state, he finally decided to throw his hat in the ring and contest for the Guber ticket of the All Progressives Congress APC in Bauch state which he eventually won to become the party’s flag bearer. What originally started as a play started to metamorphose like a movement as the acceptance grew like wildfire. The demand for good governance became loud that even the deaf can hear.
Based on his antecedent as a fine officer with all the required experience with his highly cerebral prowess and his technical ability wanted to do things differently. He ran his campaign based on issues and went around the nooks and crannies of Bauchi state to feel the pain of the masses. During his consultation and political campaigns, he felt the pain of the people, especially in the area of education, health care delivery, infrastructural development, affordable housing, and agricultural improvement among other things. During his tenure in the military, Sadique supervised the construction of the biggest military hospitals across the country with the world’s best facilities that can render medical assistance to anybody. He also supervised the smooth running of military schools and other so governance will be like a smooth ride for him with his wealth of knowledge in the military. In the cause of the consultation; he vowed to bring succour to his people and his people in turn pledged their unflinching support to unseat the incumbent Governor Bala Mohammed.
Despite several allegations raised by the opposition to discredit Abubakar and his campaign team, the love his people have for him began to spread like wildfire as the quest to bring Sadique into power became more intense. Like a man destined for greatness; Sadique in his campaign has crossed the T and dotted the I’s by giving his word in bringing the much-needed change in running an all-inclusive government driven by technology and accountability. He is looking to repeat his magic want in the military to politics as the election beckons tomorrow. With the current political permutations and the recent support of other opposition parties, Sadique we gathered is more than confident that he can uproot the incumbent as he is set to make history politically.
