Minister of state for the Federal Capital Territory ( FCT) Dr Ramatu Aliyu has appealed to residents of Abuja to give the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) a second chance at the forthcoming 2023 polls, to ensure continuity in governance.
The minister who made the appealed over the weekend during the party’s mega campaign rally at the popular Eagle Square in Abuja said that she is convinced that APC deserves a second chance because of the positive structures put on the ground by the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Aliyu stated that the party’s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu has proven to be a man with capacity, and has demonstrated that by the number of people he has reproduced through systematic mentorship.
According to her, FCT residents should give Tinubu and other candidates of the party the chance to make the country better than it had been.
“APC deserves another chance. We stand on continuity. I am standing before you to say that if APC is voted in, Nigeria will be greater, because we are building upon that which is better than what we met.
“We stand on what Buhari said that the unity of this country is not negotiable. APC as a party stands on that. So many projects have been completed, so many will be completed before the end of this administration and many others will be initiated.
“Tinubu has mentored many leaders. I have identified that one of the problems of leadership is mentorship, we want leaders who will like you to be like him,” she said.
The national secretary of APC’s Presidential Campaign Council, Hon. James Faleke, who represented the APC presidential candidate, noted that he represented Tinubu because he was involved in other engagements.
Faleke also called on Abuja residents to stand with the party during the 2023 polls, urging them to ensure that their PVCs were collected and kept intact.
