State Chairman of the party, Christopher Nicholas, lauded the hitch-free conduct of the primaries and urged party members to work assiduously toward her victory and that of other candidates of the party.
In her acceptance speech, Musa thanked the delegates for endorsing her and urged them to work as a team to ensure the success of the part in 2019 general elections.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the Imam of Jammatul Nasril Islam Friday Mosque in Yola, Alhaji Bappari Umar has emerged as the gubernatorial candidate of KOWA party in the state.
Umar who emerged unopposed at the party primaries, told NAN that he decided to join politics as a cleric to make a difference.
