Ganduje reveals what APC stakeholders should do for Tinubu amid Kano emirship tussle

A statement made available to Legit. ng indicates that Ganduje gave the assurance on Saturday, May 25, in Lafia, Nasarawa state during a meeting with critical stakeholders of the ruling party in the northcentral.

The high-profile meeting was attended by governors of Kwara state, Nasarawa state, Kogi state, Benue state and the deputy governor of Niger state.

Other prominent stakeholders include; the immediate-past national chairman of the APC Senator Abdullahi Adamu, former Nasarawa state governor Tanko Almakura, former Deputy Speaker Idris Wase, Senator Banabas Gemade, Minister of Steel Development, Shaibu Abubakar Audu, Minister of Special Duty, Minister of State, Police, all party state chairmen, among several others.

Meanwhile, Ganduje also called on all the party stakeholders and Nigerians to continue rallying support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

According to the former Kano governor, President Tinubu has not only initiated new projects but has almost completed most of the projects he inherited from the previous administration.

He appealed for the cooperation and support of all party members to succeed as a government and the ruling party.

Speaking further, Ganduje explained that the reforms put in place by President Tinubu are already yielding good returns for Nigerians.

He referred to the drastic reduction in oil theft, pipeline vandalisation, and an increment in crude oil production as some of the inroads the President Tinubu-led administration has made so far.

The APC leader further stated that the Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) initiative would cushion the hardships faced by Nigerians due to the increase in fuel prices.

According to Ganduje, there is an urgent need for party stakeholders to engage in massive sensitization of Nigerians to properly understand these challenges and President Tinubu’s efforts and commitment to addressing them.

Ganduje also spoke about his commitment to implementing the e-registration of APC members, noting that the exercise will be launched in Niger state on a date to be announced.

Meanwhile, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Sen George Akume, who stood in for President Tinubu, reassured party stakeholders of the president’s tremendous regard for the northcentral geopolitical zone.

Highlighting the contribution of the zone to the unity of the country over the years, Akume hinted that the president would soon take appropriate action to address the alleged lopsidedness of appointments and infrastructural development of the zone.

On appointments of party faithful into key ministerial seats, Akume said President Tinubu is keen on ensuring the completion of ongoing work on the Akwanga-Jos, Abuja -Lokoja, and the Makurdi-Enugu federal highways.

In his remarks, the chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF), Abdulrahman Abdulrazak, emphasized the need to sustain the party’s winning streak in the North Central zone.

The Kwara state governor urged party faithful to work hard to ensure the passage of the North Central Developmental Commission, which aims to harness the zone’s rich minerals and agricultural resources.

Also speaking, Governor Sule called on party members to set aside their differences and work together for the party’s success across the country.

Former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ahmed Wase, expressed concern over the appointment of non-APC members to sensitive positions in the President Tinubu-led administration.

He urged the party to address this anomaly ahead of the 2027 polls.
