The Senior Special Assistant to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Special Needs and Equal Opportunities, Hon. Mohammed Abba Isa, has applauded Yobe State Governor, His Excellency Mai Mala Buni, CON, for demonstrating exemplary leadership by providing Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) with strategic representation in the All Progressives Congress (APC) 2027 General Elections Campaign Council.
In a statement issued by the Focal Person, Digital and Strategic Communications, Yusuf Ali, the presidential aide's commendation was described as a significant milestone in promoting inclusive governance, political fairness and equal opportunities for Persons with Disabilities. He noted that Governor Buni's initiative demonstrates a commitment to ensuring that no segment of society is left behind in the democratic process.
Abba Isa described the governor's decision as a bold statement of inclusive leadership and political fairness, noting that the initiative aligns with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda, which prioritises inclusion, empowerment and opportunities for every Nigerian.
In a letter of appreciation addressed to Governor Buni, the presidential aide commended him for recognising the importance of Persons with Disabilities and integrating them into the state campaign structure.
He particularly appreciated Governor Buni for appointing him as Secretary of the Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) Wing of the Yobe State APC Campaign Council, describing the appointment as a demonstration of confidence in his capacity, experience and longstanding commitment to advancing disability rights and political participation.
He noted that the inclusion of PWDs in the campaign council goes beyond political appointments, providing an important platform for persons with disabilities to participate directly in political mobilisation, contribute to decision-making and strengthen the electoral prospects of the APC.
Abba Isa also congratulated the Director, Co-Director, Secretary and other members of the PWDs Wing on their respective appointments, urging them to demonstrate dedication, discipline, unity and measurable results.
He further charged the newly appointed officials to extend their mobilisation activities to grassroots communities, disability clusters, associations and organisations across the 17 local government areas of Yobe State.
He emphasised the need for intensified voter education, political awareness and encouragement of eligible voters, particularly members of the disability community, to actively participate in the electoral process.
The presidential aide expressed confidence that, with the support and guidance of Governor Buni, the PWDs Wing would play a significant role in mobilising support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's re-election in 2027 and the electoral success of all APC candidates in Yobe State.
He reiterated that Governor Buni's decision represents an important step towards strengthening the political representation of Persons with Disabilities, demonstrating that inclusive governance must translate into practical opportunities for participation, leadership and national development.
He concluded that Persons with Disabilities are not merely beneficiaries of democratic governance but important stakeholders and contributors to Nigeria's political and developmental future.
