Former Communications Minister Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami has pledged that, if elected Gombe State governor in 2027, he will focus on public welfare, economic empowerment and accountability.
Isa made the promise right after the PDP officially picked him to run for governor.
Pantami said he would tackle poverty and hunger, improve farming and create jobs for young people and women.
He also promised that public money would be spent for the people, not on embezzlement or rewarding political allies.
The ceremony also saw former Gombe Governor and Gombe North Senator Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo, six House of Representatives candidates and 24 Gombe State Assembly candidates receive the party's flag.
PDP National Chairman Abdulrahman Muhammad handed out the flags.
