Responding, Governor Adamu thanked the womenfolk for the support they have given the state government and implored them to continue in the same vein. Governor Adamu said the PDP was a party that believed in gender equality and equal opportunities. He therefore urged the women to continue their sensitization efforts among their colleagues.
In response to their request for a vehicle, Governor Adamu handed them the key to a 15-seat bus for their campaign activities. He challenged them to use the bus judiciously and for the purposes of enhancing their objectives.
The Deputy Governor of the state, Prof. Onje Gye-Wado, the PDP chairman of the state and frontline politicians in the state were in attendance during the visit.
