Words fail me to describe the sadness and pain of losing one of our finest military officers after he was abducted by criminals while travelling with his wife in Katsina State last month. His mutual friend and his colleague during their master’s degree, Permanent Secretary Adamu Abadam, described him as a complete gentleman: humble, generous, and extraordinarily caring to everyone. Major General Rabe Abubakar held a high-profile position as military spokesman between 2015 and 2017. Furthermore, his immense contributions to counter-insurgency operations and his commitment to duty, and to the stability and unity of Nigeria, remain a shining example for all as stated by the Nigerian Army. My heartfelt condolences go to his family, relatives, friends, the Katsina State Government, the Nigerian Army, and all those affected by his death. May Allah overlook his shortcomings and admit him into Jannatul Firdaus together with our departed parents and loved ones, and grant his family the patience to bear this irreplaceable loss. May Allah humiliate the criminals, their supporters and sponsors.

My dear people of Gombe State, A defining moment is before you, one that rarely comes in a lifetime. The emergence of Professor Isa Ali Pantami (@ProfIsaPantami) as a gubernatorial candidate for your great state is not a coincidence. It is a historic opportunity, and how you respond to it will determine the story your children tell about this generation. Nigeria's persistent struggles on poverty, unemployment, poor infrastructure, and weak institutions all trace back to one root cause: the absence of quality leadership. For decades, states across the country have cycled through leaders who lacked the vision, the competence, or the integrity to make a real difference. Gombe State now stands at a crossroads, with a rare chance to break from that cycle entirely. Professor Pantami's record is not built on promises, it is built on results. As DG NITDA, he transformed a once-underperforming institution into a nationally recognized driver of digital growth. As Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, he launched landmark projects that positioned Nigeria on the global technology map, created tens of thousands of jobs for Nigerian youth, and championed digital inclusion at every level. Wherever he has served, he has left it better, stronger, and more impactful than he found it. That is not a slogan, that is a verifiable track record. Beyond the achievements, there is a quality about Professor Pantami that policy records alone cannot fully capture: his genuine compassion for ordinary people. Those who have had the privilege of engaging closely with him will tell you the same thing, his heart is always with the common man and woman. His vision for governance is not one of grandeur and self-promotion, but of service, honesty, and accountability. Gombe deserves a governor who sees the farmer, the trader, the student, and the civil servant not as voters to be managed, but as citizens to be uplifted. Voting for Professor Pantami is also a vote for Gombe's connection to the world. His vast global networks, built across technology, academia, and international institutions can translate directly into foreign direct investments, development partnerships, and student exchange programs that open new doors for Gombe's young people. This is the kind of governor who does not just manage the state; he elevates it. This is why the Pantami project must belong to everyone. It must transcend party lines, tribal loyalties, and religious divisions. The question is not which party he flies, the question is what future you want for Gombe. A vote for Pantami is a vote for vision, digital competence, transparency, and sustainable progress. Gombe has the opportunity in 2027 to set the standard for governance in Nigeria, to show the rest of the country what it looks like when a state chooses quality over politics. Who knows? The leader you elect today may well be the solution Nigeria turns to tomorrow. Yakubu Sani Wudil, PhD Via Pantami Global Support Network

The Loss of Our Representative in the House of Representatives! We have lost our representative for Gombe, Kwami, and Funakaye, Hon. Yaya Bauchi Tongo. He passed away today, Friday, 12th June 2026. Today, along with Alhaji Bappa Ahmad Abdullahi and some colleagues, I visited him. I was with him at Nizamiye Hospital, Abuja, from 3:30pm to 3:50pm, where I prayed for him. I also met his friend, two of his children, and other relatives at the hospital. They received me and accompanied me to his room (video attached). Since leaving the hospital, I have been deeply worried because of the condition I saw him in. Even to a layman like me, his health condition was clearly critical. However, we always put our trust in Allah, the Almighty God. A few hours later, I received news of his passing at Nizamiye Hospital, Abuja, today, Friday. We have lost one of our own. However, passing away on a Friday carries its own spiritual blessing. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: "No believer passes away on Friday, or its night, but that Allah will protect him from the trial of the grave.” (Tirmidhi: 1074). May Allah admit him to Jannatul Firdaus along with our departed parents and loved ones, and grant his family and relatives the fortitude to bear this loss.

Many elders across Gombe State have continued to pray for and support @ProfIsaPantami as he prepares for the 2027 governorship election. Having secured the PDP ticket, they believe his years of public service and his contributions to both Gombe State and Nigeria have earned him the trust of many people. Their support is largely based on his record as Director-General of NITDA and later Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, as well as his efforts in education, youth development, and community support. For these elders, Professor Pantami remains a source of pride for Gombe State, and they wish him success in the journey ahead.

Earlier today, 498 men and women were received into the PDP in London Mai Dorawa, where they declared their support for @ProfIsaPantami ahead of the 2027 governorship election. The event was organised by the London Mai Dorawa Awareness and Youth Development group in Shamaki Ward. The new members said they were inspired by Professor Pantami’s blueprint for Gombe State, particularly his focus on agriculture, education, youth development, job creation, and good governance. They expressed confidence in his vision to drive sustainable growth and improve the lives of citizens across the state.
