Senator Alisha Ishaku Abbo Represententing Michca Madagely constituency of Adamawa State, has recount how he was mock in 2014 when declared intention to contest for Senate.
He said ” in 2014 i when declared for senate and printed my campaign posters, people mocked me.
some told me to contest for councilor of Muchalla ward. my village.
i went ahead with campaigns and spent over n100m but i was denied the opportunity to contest primary election because it was moved to abuja on the order of the national leadership of the pdp under Dr. Adamu Muazu.
in 2016, i came back home to meet my team and told them that i will be contesting for senate again in three years time.
that is in 2019.
i started a three year political war.
that same december 2016, my family and close friends told me to my face that i should not waste my time and money.
they advised me to contest for “member house of assembly mubi north” i told them thankyou and left them.
i continued with consultations.
i continued because i knew the voice that spoke to me in ife, osun state in 2014 while i was driving alone from dominion hotel along ibadan express way to celebration hotel to meet my staff.
today the senate issue is history.
i contest a very tough and bitter primary elections and won with 80.3% of delegates vote.
i also contested the general election against a veteran politician that was in the national assembly since 1999 and i won with a total of 50.2 % of total votes cast out of 15 contestants.
i suffered accidents, arrest and intimidation in the course of the journey.
at the end, i won.! yes i won!!!
today i see, hear and read so much discouraging words about my future political endeavors.
you do not know me.
