NYAN implored the leadership of the APC to suppprt his candidature and give him all the necessary support he need to emerge as the running mate.
“ Dogara performed excellently well as Speaker, he provided quality leadership then and really stabilized the house, he should be given another chance to show his capability.

The group further appreciated the leadership of Northern Governors forum for zoning the Vice presidential candidate to North-East.
