Bindow: The Bus driver, going through towns and villages of Adamawa
Just like magic, less than 10 months in office, Governor Jibrila Bindow has turned up to be a successful and a celebrated bus driver. He pilled people in his bus to a place he call ”Land of Beauty”.
Coming from the National Assembly to be the Governor of Adamawa state that is known to be one of the most multi-dialectal, multi-religion and multi what I call high profile personality who will always want to be the de-factor Governor was a dream unrealizable to some of them and seeing the complexity nature of the state.
Destiny and fate ran in favor of Sen. Mohammadu Umaru Jibrilla, the seating Governor of Adamawa state, the Sardaunan Mubi who is now popularly known as ”Bindow For Social Change”.
A driver that is navigating the roads of the state in an assumable speed of professionalism to rescue the lives and destinies of Adamawa people who have boarded his bus to take them to their various land of rest.
Before his coming on board as Governor, Adamawa is considered to be one of the most backward state in the country, where virtually nothing is going on well with the people. For this, my driver Governor vowed to work (drive) hard to save everyone on board to where are best suppose to be.
From May last year until date, I was privileged to travel to 27 states of the country and knowing Adamawa well, infrastructurally, without mincing words one will say Bindow is relatively doing well to reshape the state to its original name; the land of beauty that have been bastardized because of bad leadership.
Despite the scourge of insurgency that retardate the speed of economy growth in the northern areas of the country, my driver Governor is still driving fast to revive the economy activities of the Local Government areas that was initially been ravaged by Boko Haram; Mubi, Michika, Hong, Gombi, Maiha are economically gaining strength.
Jimeta, Yola and Mubi are now taken new shape with road constructions going on and the driver has vowed to touch every land and race in the state with people connection policies: Bindow for social Change (BSC).
Being a driver and born with business concepts, he travels far and near to woo investors to come and do business with the people of Adamawa state that are endowed with all kinds of natural resources and good arable land for Agriculture which will jack up the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) of the state.
From Toungo to Madagali, Fufore to Shelleng, Bindow is driving to safe lives, driving to take all and sundry to a resting land because the journey with the past Governments was a bad experiences haven had so many James Bonds holding the wheels of the steers.
Bindow is driving to safe lives in Adamawa state.
