If elected, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, has pledged to make Gombe State one of the richest states in the nation by bringing prosperity to the region.
Tinubu promised that the recently constructed Kolmani oil wells in the state would receive adequate attention to ensure full commercial operation and benefits for the populace while speaking to a crowd of supporters at Pantami Township Stadium in Gombe, the state capital.
In addition, he promised to establish an industrial park in the state, which will create jobs, skills, and wealth for the populace while properly managing the exploration of the Kolmani oil field to promote meaningful development.

He vowed to build on President Muhammadu Buhari’s accomplishments and pledged that the nation shouldn’t be allowed to fall into the hands of those who would destroy it.
“You will know prosperity,” he said, “if I am elected President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and Kashim Shettima is my running mate.”
I’ll see to it that Gombe State develops and becomes one of the richest states in Nigeria as a result of the discovery of the new Kolmani oil.
In order to continue the state’s infrastructure development, the former governor of Lagos State also urged Gombe residents to vote for Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya for a second term.
