The gubernatorial candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Khamisu Mailantarki, says his administration will put an end to Poverty and unemployment if elected come 11th March 2023.
Mailantarki who condemned the failure of the present All Progressives Congress (APC)-led administration of Gov Inuwa Yahaya of Gombe State to fulfill its campaign promises said his Adminitration will make the dreams and the yearnings of Gombe people come true.
The former Member of House of Representatives stated this during the inauguration of the NNPP Gubernatorial Campaign Council, on Saturday in Billiri town of Billiri Local Government Area of Gombe State.
He said under his leadership, there would be a new order to redefine governance and run the state in a manner that its citizens would be the only beneficiaries of state’s resources.
Mailantarki said NNPP is known for empowering youths and women to achieve their dreams and live better as citizens where everyone would be proud of Gombe in line with the expectations of voters.
He said the people will not regret voting his party adding that the people of the state had lived in regret for electing APC and PDP which had offered below expectations.
Mailantarki, who is known for his philanthropy, said if elected, he would ensure that all Gombe students wouldnot pay for external examinations and his administration would pay for them.
He listed fees to be paid by his administration to include the West African Examination Council (WAEC), Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and the National Examination Council (NECO).
He said if elected, his administration would also ensure that all hindrances to getting quality education by students of the state are removed.
According to him, the burden of educating Gombe children would be borne by the state government, to ensure that parents do not pay a dime as registration fees for all entry examinations into tertiary institutions.
“This is because my government will pay all these fees, so that the poor and vulnerable can get the opportunity of quality education.
“Under my leadership, education will be the right of all Gombe children, irrespective of tribe, religion and ethnicity, because they are the leaders of tomorrow and the hope of Gombe,” he said.
