2019: I will make Adamawa another Lagos – Buhari’s brother-in-law

Mahmood Ahmed, younger brother to President Muhammadu Buhari's wife,
Aisha, has formally declared his intention to contest the governorship
election of Adamawa State on the ticket of the All Progressives
Congress, APC.

Ahmed, the in-law to President Muhammadu Buhari vowed to develop the
state to make it another Lagos in economic terms.

Ahmed, younger brother to the President's wife stated this on Monday
at the state secretariat of APC in Yola, during his formal
declaration.

According to him, the present government and others before it had not
done much to develop the human and material potentials of the state.

His words: "The roads the present state government is known for had
been built by multinational companies that left Adamawa businessmen
out of contention.

"We will make this state greater. We will develop Adamawa through the
provision of infrastructure and the development of human capital and
natural resources to look like another Lagos.

"The state is too endowed with necessary resources to lag behind in
development indices."

It was gathered the entire roads leading to the APC secretariat were
blocked by thousands of his supporters during his declaration in Yola
on Monday.
