Yola, April 16, 2023 – Aisha Binani, the APC Governorship Candidate in Adamawa State, says she has accepted the result of the Adamawa State Governorship Election as declared on Sunday by the State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Hudu Yunusa.
Yunusa announced Binani as the winner of the supplementary election on Sunday after collation of the result was suspended by the state returning officer.
INEC headquarters has, however, said it rejected the results of the election announced by the REC.
In her acceptance speech, Binani thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for making history by ensuring the first elected female governor emerged during his administration.
“President Muhammadu Buhari, you have made history in electing the first female governor in our country Nigeria.
“This would no doubt broaden political participation by encouraging our daughters, sisters, aunties, mothers, and indeed the girl child to take active part in politics,” she said.
