Prof. Isa Ali Pantami, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate for Gombe State’s 2027 election, says no one can change election results in the state and warns against any rigging or manipulation. Speaking on Wednesday during meetings with PDP members and supporters in Nafada and other local government areas, Pantami calls for a level playing field and a transparent electoral process once campaigns begin. He addresses the Gombe State Government and Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, urging them to ensure lawful conduct during the election period. Pantami also says the PDP plans to run an issue-based campaign focused on development rather than insults or confrontations. He encourages residents not to be intimidated and to participate actively by voting according to their conscience. In his remarks, Pantami expresses confidence that Gombe voters will protect the value of their votes. He also criticizes the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC)-led administration for allegedly failing to improve residents’ lives and for awarding contracts to a limited group. Pantami’s statements are presented as a commitment to winning through the ballot box.
