APC Chieftain, Haske, Tasks Leaders On Intra-Party Stability

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and governorship aspirant in Adamawa State, Abdulrahman Haske, has said purposeful leadership and intra-party harmony and stability are key elements for an enduring democratic system.

Haske stated this on the sideline of APC Zonal Congress of the North-Eastern states which took place in Gombe yesterday, a statement by his Publicity Secretary, Abdulgaffar Ahmed read.

The aspirant said intra-party stability has positioned the APC across the country as a party that has institutionalised progressive governance in all its activities at local, state and national levels, attributing the success to the purposeful leadership of President Bola Tinubu as leader of the party.

Hosted by the Governor of Gombe State, Muhammadu Yahaya, the high-level gathering, which drew an array of influential leaders within the APC fold, produced Barr. Idris Shaibu Gella, State Chairman Adamawa State as the new National Vice Chairman, North-East.

Among those present were Governors Mai Mala Buni of Yobe State, Agbu Kefas of Taraba State, and Ahmadu Fintiri of Adamawa State; Deputy Governor, Borno State, Umar Usman Kadafur; Deputy National Chairman of APC, Hon. Ali Bukar Dalori and the immediate past APC North-East Vice Chairman, Comrade Mustapha Salihu. Other party chieftains and stakeholders from across the geopolitical zone were also present.

While congratulating Gella and other officials elected to manage APC affairs in the North-East Zone, Haske said the peaceful conduct of the various party events across local, state and national levels reflects the deliberate stability which the party leadership has continued to create for all stakeholders in the country.

Haske, according to the statement, described the gathering as a defining moment for the APC in the North-East, emphasising that the congress reflects the party’s unity, internal democracy, and readiness to consolidate its political strength ahead of future electoral contests.

He said: “This Congress is not merely a procedural gathering; it is a powerful affirmation of our collective resolve as a party. It demonstrates that the APC remains united, focused, and prepared to deepen democratic values while advancing the development agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”

For the Adamawa-born political figure, the enthusiastic reception in Gombe marked yet another significant step in what many observers now describe as a steadily rising political wave ahead of the next governorship race in Adamawa.

Haske also expressed gratitude to President Tinubu, the national leadership of the APC, and delegates at the congress for fostering a transparent and inclusive political environment within the party. According to him, the APC remains a platform where emerging leaders and fresh ideas can thrive.

Haske further called on party leaders, stakeholders, and supporters across the federation to rally behind the party as preparations intensify for the forthcoming APC National Convention slated for March 27-28, 2026, which, he described, as the apex gathering that will further strengthen the party’s unity and strategic direction.
