The lawmaker Representing Pankshin/Kanke/Kanam Federal Constituency, Rt Hon Yusuf Adamu Gagdi has  inaugurated Gagdi Campaign Council to prosecute the campaign for the reelection in 2023.

 Speaking, All Progressives Congress (APC) gubernatorial candidate for Plateau State, Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda Goshwe solicited for their support to bring him on board as well as other candidates for the various positions in the zone; who are contesting on the banner of the APC, including the lawmaker.

He told the crowd that included the who-is-who in the constituency that if Tinubu/Shettima ticket and his candidacy become a reality, “it would be easy to lobby and get things done for the state.”

The Director General is Hon Philip P Dasun, while the Secretary General is N.D. Shehu Kanam; with numerous directorates to help prosecute the second term bid.

The Women Affairs Directorate is headed by a one-time House of Assembly member, Hon Alice Dimlong, Youth Affairs Directorate is headed by Mr. Oluwadaser David and Media Affairs headed by a big name in the media industry, Mr. Katdapba Y Gobum.

The large size of the council is billed towards   major mobilization for attendance from across PKK. 

Gagdi’s disposition to doing the needs of the people must have made people come out en mass.

The event at best, must have sent shivers into the spine of members of the opposition camp. 

More big names that gained entrance into the venue were drawn from Nasarawa, Lagos and Benue states. 

But it was instructive that they  agreed on one thing, “A good product has the capacity to sell itself.”

The Dengi Mini Stadium became smaller in size than it could have ordinarily been because of enthusiastic supporters who thronged the venue in their numbers.

The entrance of the Rt. Hon Yusuf Adamu Gagdi and Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda Goshwe turned the space into a carnival of dance, with the local security finding it hard to take control for the programme to kick start.

Speaking, Rt Hon Yusuf Adamu Gagdi, who was elated beyond measures, described the support for the event as encouraging, even as he said that the occasion was used to test the mic.

Speaker after one another, they  poured encomiums on the people’s representative, whom they described as focused to have changed the course of the federal constituency.

Those who also spoke included, Hon (Dr) Dayyabu Yusuf Garga, Prof SMG Kanam, Nde John G Gobak, Nde and Joshua Waklek amongst other party leaders.

The Director General of the Gagdi Campaign Council, Hon Philip P. Dasun, speaking on behalf of members, pledged their unalloyed commitment to the success of the campaign that would return him for a second term bid.

The campaign council has about 1,200 persons, headed by Rt. Hon Yusuf Adamu Gagdi as chairman.
