Adamawa 2019: Bindow is a Risk APC Cannot Afford To Take- Modi

By Billy Graham Abel Yola

Sequel to the huge controversy  that trailed the emergence of Umaru Mohammed Jibrilla Bindow as the flag bearer of the APC in Adamawa state, the governor is yet again embroiled in another scandal, a case of certificate forgery in which the governor's entire political career has been thrown into a huge intergrity question, as the cousel to one of the aspirants, Mahmood Halilu Ahmed, has demanded for the arrest and prosecution of the embattled governor describing Bindow as, "A serial academic forger and a habitual criminal perjurer," whose entire political career is a, "criminal enterprise."

This is contained in a letter forwarded by Ugbon Akpan of Ugon Akpam Chambers on behalf of Mohamood Halilu Ahmad (Modi), addressed to the National Chairman of All Progressive Congress and copied to the president of Nigeria and the Attorney General of the Federation.

The letter titled “APC ON THE ROAD TO POLITICAL SUICIDE IN ADAMAWA, has asked the National Headquarters of the Party to substitute the name of
Governor Bindow candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC) with that of Mohamood Halilu Ahmad in view of the serial academic forgeries and
criminal perjure of Umaru Mohammed Jibrilla.

According to the letter, Mr. Bindow sworn to an affidavit before a
Yola High Court on all the forged certificates to support his governorship candidacy ambition.

“In the three submissions, Governor Bindow presented forged all the
academic credentials  of West Africa Examination Council (GCE) dated
1983, City College of Higher Education Certificate 1985 and City
College of Higher Education Diploma 1986."

The letter added that, “The WAEC Certificate No. SG488238A 8th June 1983 with candidate examination No. 20123/055, from the official record of WAEC belongs to one Daylop Pam Dong Rim of Government secondary school Miango, Plateau state as shown on the WAEC results of print outs of examination number 20623055”.

It further stated that the two city college of higher Education
(London) tendered are also demonstrably forged as the address of the school is fake.

Mohamood Halilu (Modi) described the Governor's action as an embarrassment to the party in the state noting that it is criminal
and it contravenes section 188 (j) of the 1999 constitution as amended and should not be allowed to fly the party’s flag for the governorshipelection in 2019.

He called on the National Chairman to as a matter of urgency substitute
Governor Bindow’s name with his own as flag bearer of the party in the gubernatorial election in Adamawa if the party hopes to retain Adamawa as one of the APC states.

It could be recalled that Governor Umaru Jibrilla has been drawn into vortex of crisis over his secondary school academic certificate in last few weeks

Just some few months into the 2019 general elections, the APC squabble in Adamawa state has continued to highlight the APC quagmire APC as a party has been in, since the conclusion of it's acrimonious primaries nationwide.

The controversial declaration of the incubent, Governor Jibrilla Bindow as the winner of the gubernatorial primary after the two other contestants, Mahmood Halilu and Nuhu Ribadu maintained that there was no primary held in the state, is a dark pictures of the confusion the party's leadership has thrown the party into nationawide and Adamawa state has continued to be that reference for all that is not well with the party in Nigeria.
