Gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Benue State Revd. Fr. Hyacinth Alia has expressed gratitude to the major stakeholders in the “Alialization Project”, the rural populace and the media for their solidarity and sacrifices in placing Benue on the threshold of a new dawn.
Alia also appreciated the national leadership of the party led by Senator Abdullahi Adamu, the leader of the party in the state, Senator George Akume and the state executive committee of the party for organising a credible gubernatorial rerun election which again saw him emerge victorious as the candidate of the party for 2023 general election.
He also commended party members who trooped out and voted for him during the rerun gubernatorial primary election that was held in 11 local government areas of the state.
A statement by the director of communications, Alialization-Alia/Ode Campaign Organisation ‘23 Kula Tersoo quoted Fr Alia who said, “I am truly overwhelmed by the massive show of love and solidarity, and will not in any way take it for granted.
“You have once more demonstrated your readiness to ensure that Benue must be fixed, and the future of your children is thoroughly prepared.
“You spoke very loudly and confirmed once more your earlier stand that I must fly the flag of our party, the APC, for this I want to thank you all.
“The enthusiasm and determination you depicted at your various wards during the exercise obviously has sent a message deep inside the minds of those who want to stand on the way of an idea whose time has come.”
“I am proud of you. You have, by that outing, assured me that the task must be accomplished. Benue must be redeemed and made great again.
“I want to again assure you that I am well-prepared and ready to lead the way for the liberation of the people of the state who have been traumatized with hunger, illnesses, and destitution orchestrated by bad leadership that has deliberately denied them access to their legitimate entitlements and basic needs of life,” he said.
