The leader of the delegation Alhaji Ahmadu Mustapha explained that the purpose of the visit is to congratulate the Wazirin Adamawa for his victory at the PDP presidential primaries.

He pledged the association’s support and loyalty to the PDP standard bearer. He explained further that the decision of their over one million members to identify with Atiku is because of his investments in Agriculture, stating that they acknowledged that Atiku is a rice farmer too.

On his part, the former vice-president thanked the association for identifying with him. He acknowledged the fact that he has been in Agriculture since 1984 even before the association was formed.

The PDP Presidential candidate states that if given the opportunity, he would invest more in Agriculture because of its strategic importance to the nation, promising to give incentives to farmers to boost agricultural production. Also, he promised to continuously interact and engage farmers as a way of encouraging profitable investment in the sector.
