2023: How I’ll Defeat Zulum – Borno Female Guber Candidate

Hajiya Fatima Abubakar, the Borno State governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) says she is optimistic about defeating the incumbent governor Babagana Umara Zulum in the forthcoming general election.

Abubakar, the only female among the candidates aspiring for the number seat in the state told newsmen in Maiduguri on Wednesday that she had started a house-to-house campaign to reach out to the electorate in the state.

She said she was gaining more support and popularity from the electorate, saying she was almost certain of winning the poll.

“I am getting more popular with into supporters, particularly women who believe in my capacity to bring more and better transformation in the lives of women and youths in Borno.

“I want to urge women and youths we are reaching out to, to also extend the messages to others on the need to try the few women candidates in this contest for positive change,” Abubakar said.

She debunked speculations that she had stepped down from the race because her campaign posters and billboards were not visible like others, adding that there was still time for such campaigns and rallies.

“We should be working for a better Borno, not self-interest and should respect the people’s choice in good faith,” she said.

She maintained that the support she was already getting gave her confidence that she would defeat Zulum in the governorship election
