Residents of Kwali Area Council have expressed strong support for Lassa Yusuf Tampe, the All Progressives Congress (APC) chairmanship candidate, ahead of the upcoming local government election.
Speaking with journalists in Abuja on Monday, Amina Abubakar, a school teacher, praised Tampe’s character and leadership qualities.
“I will vote for Lassa Tampe because of his dedication and simplicity. He has shown that politicians can avoid selfishness if they can control their greed,” she said.
Professor Adeagbo Moritiwon, a political scientist and long-time resident of Kwali, described Tampe as the frontrunner in the race, emphasising his strong reputation.
“Tampe is the man to beat. I always advise politicians to remember those who voted for them because they will need them again. I am yet to hear anyone speak ill of Tampe,” he noted.
Moritiwon further highlighted the candidate’s leadership style: “Politics in Nigeria has become synonymous with corruption, incompetence, and selfishness. But Tampe is determined to change this perception. His focus on service, moral integrity, and dedication to the people sets him apart.”
Tampe, who previously served as a councillor for Yangoji Ward, is widely recognised for his efforts to improve the lives of Kwali residents. With a solid educational background and experience working across different parts of the country, he is seen as a leader committed to development.
