Audu made the call upon arriving the PDP national secretariat with a large group of his supporters to submit his expression of interest and nomination forms.

The  PDP governorship aspirant stated that capacity, competence and character should be the criteria for the selection of the candidate to fly the party’s flag.

Speaking to journalists on his development agenda, he said: “With the developmental indices of the state, I will consolidate on the positive strides of the outgoing Governor Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo and also initiate some programmes and policies that can add more value to move Gombe to the next level of development.

“Running an all inclusive governance will be an uncompromised policy of my administration. By so doing,  all the segments, tribes and senatorial districts of the state shall have unhindered participation in the the decision making process essential for the growth and development of the state.

“Under my administration, religion will rather unite us rather than divide us as a people with common history, destiny and political interests irrespective of the differences in our voluntary choice of faith and doctrines.

“This is because I’m my active years of military service as Major General,  I did not serve this great country on the parochial lines of ethnicity or religious beliefs but for the maintenance of national unity and interest”.

Audu, however,  stated that his administration would redesign the education and age-long farming system of Gombe state to add the contemporary value that could place the people on the map of international skill and trade exchanges so as to reduce unemployment and boost the state economy.
