Senator Dankwambo, who chairs the Senate Committee on Public Accounts, congratulated Pantami on his victory at the PDP primaries and commended him for the courtesy visit.
He expressed confidence in Pantami’s chances, noting that presenting a credible, tested, and widely accepted candidate gives the party a strong advantage.
The former Gombe governor also wished the PDP candidate success in the 2027 election and prayed for victory for the party.
The statement highlighted Pantami’s strong record of public service, noting that he facilitated over 241 projects and programmes across Gombe State during his time as minister.
