Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Borno State have drummed support for the Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu/Kashim Shettima ticket to win the 2023 presidential election.
According to the stakeholders who were drawn from Maiduguri Metropolitan Council (MMC) including chairmen and secretaries of the 15 wards, on Monday in Maiduguri, disclosed that they have been staunch supporters of the APC, hence, they are ready to give their unflinching support to ensure the party wins all elective positions at the ward, council, state and the national levels.
The forum’s chairman who spoke on behalf of the stakeholders, Alhaji Kaumi Musa said; “We just had our meeting recently with the leadership of our great party led by Hon. Ali Bukar Dalori on how we will strategise to support the party in its campaigns, and we want to reiterate that Borno State will give unprecedented votes to all our candidates.”
He described Tinubu-Shettima ticket, as the best option to rescue the country from economic decline and insecurity.
“This forum is proud to be associated with massive people oriented projects executed by governor Babagana Umara Zulum in the last three and half years, which are glaringly spread across the 27 local government areas, particularly in Maiduguri metropolis where several mega schools, roads, hospitals/clinics were constructed and commissioned by President Muhammadu Buhari among others.
“Under the present administration, we have witnessed several dividends of democracy with empowerment of our people, and we have no option than to ensure our total support and cooperation to the APC- led government.
“It is therefore disheartening to hear some insinuations on the social media that some APC stakeholders in MMC are not carried along in policies and programmes of the present administration. The Forum wants to use this medium to reassure that we are working round the clock to fish out those who were perpetrating falsehood against us in the social media,” Musa stated.
