Adamawa Needs a Technocrat Governor, Says Balarabe Ahmad

Balarabe Ahmad, a legal practitioner, argues that Adamawa State requires a technocrat as its next governor, specifically citing Aminu Galadima as an ideal candidate. Ahmad emphasizes that the state has heard enough political slogans over the past two decades and now needs a leader with a proven technical background.

He highlights Galadima's 20-year unblemished career in petroleum technology and his role in developing human capacity within the oil and gas sector through the Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF). Ahmad stresses the importance of a governor who can implement a comprehensive development blueprint focused on agriculture, commerce, and education, linking scholarships directly to industry needs.

He believes that a technocrat can effectively address the state's security issues by creating job opportunities for youth, thereby reducing violence. Ahmad concludes that the time has come for the people of Adamawa to make informed choices about their leadership, advocating for a candidate who possesses the necessary skills and integrity.
