Goje Urges Supporters to Reject APC Candidates in Gombe
Danjuma Goje, a Senator representing Gombe Central since 2011 and a former governor, addressed his supporters at his residence in Gombe, urging them not to vote for the APC candidates in the upcoming elections who denied him a return ticket to the Senate. He specifically mentioned the House of Representatives candidates, Hon. Usman Bello Kumo and Hon. Inuwa Garba, as well as the APC candidate for the Gombe Central Senatorial District, DCP Mohammed Ahmed (Rtd).
Goje described the denial of his ticket as a betrayal by certain forces within the party, asserting that loyalty should be directed towards the APC rather than individuals who undermine founding members. He stated that while he would not dictate whom to vote for, he advised against supporting those who opposed his candidacy.
Goje has been a significant political figure in Gombe, having served two terms as governor before his Senate tenure.
