“Atiku is just another politician in Nigeria. Evidence and history have shown that he is defeatable. He has tried it many times he has been defeated."
Adamu said this when he was asked if the Atiku factor will not threaten Binani’s chances against Governor Ahmadu Fintiri.

Alleging that Fintiri has underperformed since he took over leadership of the state, Adamu claimed:
“Based on the performance of the governor of the state today, I have reasons to believe that by the grace of God, we will form the next government in Adamawa State. It would be the APC government by the grace of God.
“He has nothing to show for the period he has been in office. And you need to go to the state with your ears to the ground and shine your eyes and see what you can associate with his personal success, by way of improving the lot of the people that elected him.
“We don’t have any doubt about it. We don’t want to be complacent, though. We’re working hard to displace him working hard to ensure that the APC will next election."
