Yusuf Suleiman, Deputy Director-General Administration of the Atiku Abubakar ADC 2027 Presidential Campaign Council, has thanked the people of Sokoto State for their massive turnout and peaceful conduct during the flag-off of the African Democratic Congress presidential campaign.

Suleiman, in a press statement issued on Friday, described the November 4 event as a historic outing, saying Sokoto had demonstrated overwhelming support for the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.

He said the streets, rooftops and roadsides of Sokoto were filled with supporters who came voluntarily to welcome Atiku and the ADC leadership, describing the reception as a demonstration of the people’s conviction and readiness for political change.

The campaign official expressed appreciation to traditional and religious leaders for their prayers and blessings, as well as women, youths and other residents for their discipline and peaceful conduct throughout the event.

He also commended members of the Presidential Campaign Council, particularly its chairman, Kashim Ibrahim Imam, and Director-General, Senator Austin Akobundu, for their leadership.

Suleiman specifically recognised Senator Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, the ADC leader in Sokoto State, governorship candidate Manir Muhammad Dan’iya, the state party leadership, elected representatives, local government and ward leaders, as well as volunteers and mobilisation teams for their contributions to the successful campaign flag-off.

He also praised Dan’iya for remaining steadfast following the reported attack on him at the airport days before the event.

According to him, the turnout in Sokoto has set the tone for the campaign ahead, reflecting Nigerians’ desire for a government that would make life affordable, restore security and promote national unity.

Suleiman said the campaign would continue across the federation with confidence that the will of Nigerians would prevail.
