2019: Gulak, Modibbo fight over Adamawa guber bid

Quest for Adamawa Government House in 2019, is generating squabbles amongst political stakeholders in the state. They
Former special adviser to ex-President Goodlcuk Jonathan on Political Matters, Ahmed Ali Gulak and Mallam Ibrahim Modibbo, ex-spokesman to former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, are at each other’s throat over a Facebook post of  purported endorsement of Ribadu by Murtala Nyako, impeached governor of the state.
Modibbo had, in an apparent show of solidarity and garnering support base for Ribadu on Facebook, displayed an All Progressives Congress (APC) poster with pictures of Nyako and Ribadu on top and bottom, respectively.
The poster also had “security, accountability and transparency” boldly written on it, and called on people to vote for Ribadu in the 2019 governorship election. Modibbo wrote: “Profile of integrity, accountability and high moral fibre. If you want development, food on your table, social security, job opportunities, a leader with human face, not a liar, vote Baba Mai Mangoro’s anointed candidate for Adamawa Government House 2019.  When others have controversial narrative of bring dealers, he is a leader. When others are parrots, he is a patriot. As 2019 approaches, be guided by your inspirations to form your impressions and make your expressions.”  Irked by Modibbo’s action, Gulak commented on his page. “So, it is now clear that Ribadu would not sell unless you involve Nyako to anoint him. Modibbo, it is not fair to Ribadu. But, in a swift reaction, Modibbo wrote: “Haba Ahmed, you had all the educational background, the experience and full capacity to be PDP National Chairman, but, sadly, you have now been reduced to a megaphone of an illiterate-money miss road never do well. How sad!”
