Launched a 'Train of Change' programme and commissioned a 15-year development blueprint, alongside a 'Public Traditional Partnership' (PTP) structure to align political and traditional leadership on grassroots projects.

The 'Train of Change' programme and its 15-year development blueprint were announced early in the tenure, but no independently verified outcomes followed. Bindow became the first Adamawa governor since 1999 to be voted out after a single term, saying on his way out, 'I wish I had done better.'

Promised improved road connectivity within Adamawa's towns, particularly Yola.

Delivered a township roads network including the Karewa-Masakare road, Gumti road, Wauru Jabbe off Numan road, and the Yola bypass to the Upper Benue River Basin Development Authority quarters, among others.

Promised to establish a large-scale rice production and processing company in Fufore as part of the administration's economic diversification plan.

The large-scale rice production and processing plant at Fufore was listed for implementation in 2016, but no evidence of its construction or operation has emerged. Bindow lost his 2019 re-election bid with the project undelivered.

Campaigned on accountable use of Adamawa's treasury.

EFCC intelligence later alleged Bindow participated in looting the state treasury of about ₦62 billion through several bank accounts, and after he defected to the PDP in 2024 further reports alleged EFCC scrutiny of an even larger, roughly ₦400 billion scam.
