“Our opponents are simply jittery because he is their only headache on the road to 2023. They know they cannot stop him.

“All they are doing is to distract his supporters. Something that is impossible looking at the kind of loyalty and support base we have through the grace of God.

“Nothing good comes easy. We therefore call on all our supporters to remain calm because our collective desire to see our Senator Emmanuel Bwacha in Government House Jalingo as Governor of Taraba State will come to pass by the special grace of God.

“Let’s continue our House to House campaign for the restoration project under the leadership of distinguished Senator Emmanuel Bwacha.
