Kept
The promise
Implicit in his 1999 election on the APP (later ANPP) platform, as the first civilian governor of a state created in 1996.
Assessment
Hashidu governed Gombe from 29 May 1999 to 29 May 2003 with Joshua Lidani as deputy, completing the term before losing re-election. He died on 27 July 2018.
Partial
The promise
To stand up the administration, infrastructure and services of Gombe from a low base.
Assessment
As the first elected governor of a state created only in 1996, Hashidu necessarily stood up Gombe's basic administration, and left office without a corruption case. No quantified record of infrastructure or service delivery survives, and he lost the 2003 election to Mohammed Danjuma Goje after one term.
