Make All Appointments Within 18-months – Support Groups Tell Tinubu

The Confederation of APC Support Groups has called on the incoming president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to complete all his appointments within 18months. 

The groups also charged the incoming president to tackle poverty as a priority. 

Speaking at the unveiling of the Confederation of APC Support Groups, the director-general, Dr Muhammad Kailani, said making appointments on time would help the economy and prevent civil servants from abusing their offices. 

“The in coming government of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu must make appointments within 18 months of its swearing in to prevent civil servants from taking advantage of the vacuum and take decisions or make appointments in favour of cronies or saboteurs,” he said, adding that the new group emerged to improve APC’s base and enhance an effective and vibrant synergy. 

“We are talking about a meaningful impact on the polity and policies of our nation that will translate to curb the pains and pangs of poverty on the downtrodden.

“This is a necessity as we cannot afford to lag behind in terms of transition from a third world base, to a developed country that cares for her citizenry.

“Let it be clearly stated here for the avoidance of doubt that, in line with the 21st century’s global initiatives to meet human endeavors and political evolution, policies must be built on the tripod of commitment, transparency and dedication to an earmarked cause. 

“For effective nation building, we must, as a matter of necessity, shift base from old fashioned templates, to modern trend identity transfiguration.

“Let us be reminded that, having emerged from a general election, where our collective contributions made a difference and changed the narratives in the nation’s political space for the better, we must be mindful of the fact that the victory came with its attendant challenges.

“No doubt, the erstwhile Amalgamated APC Support Groups, of which I was its Director-General, made a very significant input into the victory of our party in the 2023 general elections at all levels,” he added.
