Dumo Lulu-Briggs, the governorship candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), has pledged to donate his salary and allowances to widows in Rivers State if elected in the 2027 general elections. This pledge was made during a media chat in Buguma, his hometown in Asari-Toru Local Government Area, where Lulu-Briggs presented his 'Reset Rivers State' blueprint.
He also promised to run a transparent, accountable, and selfless administration, fostering an environment where young people can dream big and achieve their goals. Lulu-Briggs' decision to forgo his salary is inspired by the NDC's presidential candidate, Peter Obi, whom he considers his principal. He vowed to ensure that every penny of government resources would be accounted for, and his personal sacrifices aim to restore public confidence in government.
Lulu-Briggs promised to reform the state civil service, invest in healthcare, and develop human resources over natural resources.
