The All Progressives Congress, APC, Nigeria’s governing party, will establish a consensus and strengthen party unity for its victory in the 2023 General Election.
The Borno State governor, Professor Umara Zulum, stated this when members of an Osinbajo Support group, the Progressive Consolidation Group, PCG, visited him in his office in Borno State.
Governor Zulum noted that identifying leaders to lead Nigeria is a task of the President, governors and the party hierarchy.
“I am solidly behind initiatives aimed towards enhancing the unity of our party and progress of Nigeria.
No one and nothing will prevent the party from moving in unison.
“We have to identify the right individuals to lead the nation, and the task requires governors, party hierarchy and the President working together in concert.
“Individual aspirations may have to be downplayed because we all have to concur with the decision of the leader of our party.
“Borno State under me will promote unity and all efforts to ensure the success of APC; we shall work with the party hierarchy, our leaders at the National Assembly and our party leaders at ward and state levels, to arrive at solutions to taking the country forward,” Governor Zulum stated.
Meanwhile, the Chairman of the PCG, Dr Aliyu Rabiu Kurfi, spoke on the need for Governor Zulum, other state governors and party leaders at the ward, state and federal levels to forge a consensus towards making Nigeria’s Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, the country’s next President in 2023.
“The Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo deserves the right of first refusal and even, in a crowded race with great individuals, he stands out as an insider with the right level of competence and intellect to do the job better than all others,” Kurfi said.
He explained that good self-discipline, moral qualities and competency showed by Professor Osinbajo during President Buhari’s absence makes the vice president the best candidate for APC’s presidential ticket.
Personalities on the PCG entourage to Borno include its Deputy chairman (North), Mr Musa Liman Kwande, its Deputy Chairman (South), Dr Ebenezer Faji and former Managing Director of African Petroleum Plc, Shettima Abba-Gana who was a former commissioner in Borno State.
Others include the PCG Women’s Leader, Hajia Rabi Dauda, Barrister Emmanuel Pippa (Publicity Secretary) and Mr Jeff O.
Ozomegwa, the Deputy Secretary-General.
