One of the finest persons I have been privilege to know and work with is Hon. Bashir Sheriff Machina, the man has a clean heart, he is completely incapable of malice, and in the face of all odds, he has a sunny view of life.
In addition to this his empathy for the people across all divides, loyalty, commitment, contributions to his Party, APC, popularity and above all acceptability.
Should we then throw the above qualities of commitment, contributions and loyalty to Party to the dustbin, thereby discourage would-loyal Party members? Certainly not, this style of politics without doubt cannot even be found in the record book of His Excellency, Gov. Mai Mala Buni.

Bashir Machina took the bull by the horns last week when he accepted the growing calls by his people to contest the senatorial seat to represent the good people of Yobe North in the upper chamber of the National Assembly.
For some of us who who are privileged to work closely with him, one can authoritatively predict a better future for our people irrespective of ethnicity, locality or even political party should Bashir Machina eventually emerge as the Senator representing Yobe North.
It is from the foregoing I wish to appeal to the conscience of our people, that providence has once again entrusted into your hands the authority to dictate who shall pilot the affairs of the most naturally endowed District in Yobe State.
His relationship with people has always been built on trust, this has kept his long-standing relationship with his friend, principal and political ally, Gov. Mai Mala Buni very effective.
The time to bring dividends of Democracy to the grassroot particularly in Yobe North Senatorial District has come. Let’s join hands together for this noble project.
