The 43-year-old referenced video evidence of him employing the same statement during his campaigns for both the Plateau State House of Assembly and the National Assembly in both his initial and subsequent tenures.

“I can equally show you the video of those statements I made when I was campaigning for the National Assembly in my first tenure and I can show you the video of what I have said when I am campaigning for my second tenure,” he said.

“Why was that not a problem to them when I was campaigning for the House of Assembly and my first tenure as a member of the House of Representatives?” he asked.

“When I always say ‘we know whom’ I don’t say, ‘who we know’ they should listen carefully.”

Gagdi mentioned that when he says ‘we know whom,’ he means ‘we know God.’ He stated that his opponents may be underestimating the power of faith, asserting, “Maybe I am confronting someone who thinks his power can give him what God cannot give him.”
