Northern States Governors’ Forum has hailed the decision of the All Progressives Congress, APC, of electing Abdullahi Umar Ganduje as the new National Chairman of the party.
A statement issued on Thursday by the Forum’s Chairman and Gombe State Governor, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, said Ganduje’s election underscores the trust and confidence fellow party stakeholders and members have in him. The statement further said the choice of the former Kano State Governor reflects his exceptional leadership abilities.
The statement also hailed the election of former Senate spokesman, Senator Ajibola Basiru, as the National Secretary of the party.
The statement reminded Ganduje that his distinguished tenure as the governor of Kano State demonstrated his commitment to the welfare of the people and the development of the APC, and the nation.
“As the newly elected national chairman, you hold a critical position in steering our great party towards a united and prosperous future.
“Your experience and strategic vision will be vital in addressing the challenges ahead and harnessing the collective strength of the APC to bring about positive change for all Nigerians.
“We are confident that under your able guidance, the party will chart a course of progress, inclusivity, and good governance that will resonate with citizens across the country in line with President Tinubu’s ‘Renewed Hope’ mantra,” the statement noted.
He hailed the leadership direction and guidance of President Tinubu, which he said was the reason the conduct of the caucus and NEC meetings went smoothly and produced the new leadership.
