Fintiri disclosed this on Thursday during the flag-off of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Campaign Council at Ribadu Square, Yola, saying the initiative would involve the deployment of 31 buses to provide free transportation for the beneficiaries.
He explained that the scheme was designed to reduce commuting costs, ease the financial burden on residents and improve their access to affordable transportation amid prevailing economic challenges.
The governor reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to prioritising citizens’ welfare through policies and programmes aimed at improving living standards and delivering democratic dividends.
While acknowledging the economic difficulties confronting Nigerians, Fintiri expressed optimism that the current hardship would not persist indefinitely.
He also commended President Bola Tinubu for what he described as bold decisions and economic reforms, pledging continued collaboration between the state and Federal Government, as well as security agencies, to tackle insecurity and sustain peace.
On the 2027 general elections, Fintiri urged Adamawa residents to vote for the APC governorship candidate, Ahmed Galadima, and other candidates of the party.
He expressed confidence in Galadima’s leadership capacity, saying he would promote justice, fairness and inclusiveness across the state.
In his remarks, Galadima described Fintiri as a leader who understood and shared the feelings of the people, urging residents to support the APC at both state and national levels.
He promised to sustain the developmental achievements of the present administration if elected governor.
Earlier, the Director-General of the APC Campaign Council in Adamawa, Titus Solomon, described the state as a stronghold of the party and called on residents to complement Fintiri’s efforts by voting for all APC candidates.
Similarly, the state APC Chairman, Hamza Madagali, urged party leaders at the ward, local government and state levels to intensify mobilisation efforts to secure victory for the party.
Madagali warned that party leaders who failed to deliver their respective wards could risk losing their positions, while emphasising the need for unity and stronger internal cohesion.
He also appreciated the various political groups supporting the APC and urged them to intensify grassroots mobilisation for Galadima and other party candidates.
The North-East Zonal Chairman of the APC, Idris Shuaibu, described the campaign flag-off as a reflection of the solid foundation laid by the Fintiri administration, expressing confidence that the state would attain greater heights under the party.
He called on residents to support the administration and sustain its developmental achievements.
Also speaking, former Governor Jibrilla Bindow pledged to mobilise his supporters for the success of the APC at both state and national levels.
Bindow urged party candidates to remain united and called for support for Fintiri’s senatorial ambition in the Northern Senatorial District.
In a goodwill message on behalf of the 21 local government areas, Abdurazak Namdas described the APC as the largest political party in Adamawa, claiming that it had approximately 2.4 million registered members in the state.
He urged residents to demonstrate their support by voting for all APC candidates in the 2027 general elections.
