In a show of commitment to religious development and community support, the Senator representing Gombe North Senatorial District, Senator Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo, has constructed a newly completed modern Jumat Mosque in Lule, a village under Gombe Abba Ward of Dukku Local Government Area.

The official commissioning of the mosque took place on Friday, marked by a special Jumat prayer led by local clerics and attended by hundreds of worshippers. Speaking shortly after observing the prayer, Senator Dankwambo said the construction of the mosque was part of his efforts to support and promote the Islamic faith across his constituency.

“I built this mosque to support the growth of Islam and to provide a befitting place of worship for the people of this community,” he stated. “This is part of my commitment to give back to my constituents and contribute to their spiritual well-being.”

Also speaking to journalists during the event, the Senator’s Special Assistant, Alhaji Salisu Mr. B, described the gesture as a reflection of Dankwambo’s dedication to the propagation of Islam. He explained that the mosque project includes modern toilet facilities for the convenience of worshippers, and forms part of a broader initiative to improve living conditions across the senatorial district.

“This is not the first mosque the Senator has constructed in Dukku Local Government,” Alhaji Salisu noted. “He has consistently delivered various dividends of democracy, including boreholes, healthcare facilities, and culverts across the entire constituency.”

The Emir of Dukku, Alhaji Dr. Haruna Abdulkadir Rasheed, who graced the event, expressed deep appreciation for the lawmaker’s contribution. He noted that the Lule community had for decades attempted to build the mosque but lacked the resources to bring the project to fruition.

“We are truly grateful to Senator Dankwambo for stepping in where others could not,” the Emir said. “This is a historic achievement for the people of Lule, and I urge community leaders to take responsibility for its maintenance and continued development.”

On behalf of the Lule community, the village head thanked Senator Dankwambo for the generous gesture, offering prayers for his continued protection and success during his tenure in office.

The commissioning ceremony was attended by religious leaders, community elders, youths, and political stakeholders, who hailed the project as a symbol of unity and progress in the area.

In a move underscoring loyalty and grassroots empowerment, Honorable Muhammad Buhari Dalhatu, a close associate of Professor Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami, CON, has donated a brand-new motorcycle to a staunch supporter, Nafiu Scorpion.

The presentation, which took place in Gombe, was made on behalf of Professor Pantami—renowned scholar, former Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, and traditional titleholder *Majidadin Daular Usmaniyya*. The gesture was described as both symbolic and practical, aimed at rewarding dedication and promoting community engagement.

Speaking during the handover ceremony, Hon. Dalhatu emphasized that the donation was inspired by Professor Pantami’s leadership philosophy, which promotes loyalty, service, and empowerment—especially at the grassroots level.

“This is not just a gift,” Dalhatu said. “It is an appreciation of the commitment and resilience shown by Nafiu Scorpion. He has consistently demonstrated belief in our shared ideals, and this motorcycle will further support his efforts within the community.”

The recipient, visibly emotional, thanked both Professor Pantami and Hon. Dalhatu for the surprise gesture. He promised to continue working towards the collective goals of development and civic engagement that the Professor has championed over the years.

Observers say the move further cements Professor Pantami’s political and social influence, particularly among the youth and grassroots networks across the region. Supporters described the donation as “a boost to motivation and recognition of unsung contributors.”

With growing political activity and community mobilization in the lead-up to the next election cycle, acts such as this are expected to reinforce loyalty and visibility for key figures like Professor Pantami and his allies.

The motorcycle donation marks yet another chapter in the ongoing efforts by Pantami’s loyalists to build bridges with the people—through empowerment, recognition, and tangible support.
