Tinubu-Shettima Grassroots Campaign Council Dissolved

The national coordinator of Tinubu-Shettima Grassroots Independent Campaign Council (TSGICC) Hon Ali Silas Agara, has announced the dissolution of the council.

He stated in a statement that TSGICC campaigned at the grassroots across the country leading to the resounding victory of All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, in the February 25, 2023 election.

TSGICC otherwise known as APC-ICC has its Headquarters at Ralph Shodeinde Street, CBD, Abuja.

The statement reads in part: “Planning and Strategy Committee (PSC) which had existed for over two years under the excellent leadership of some eminent and notable personalities, under whose auspices the TSGICC emerged to drive the successful grassroots-based campaign, approved the dissolution with immediate effect.  

“The ICC was a strategic and novel grassroots-based campaign initiative which was personally conceived by the President-elect and delicately nurtured by chieftains of PSC to drive the grassroots-based campaigns with popular appeal for massive impact.”

Agara who was the immediate past deputy governor of Nasarawa State said, the dissolution of the TSGICC is coming in the wake of a similar move a few days ago by the APC which dissolved the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC).

According to him, the TSGICC was specifically set up shortly after the emergence of the PCC to complement the latter by driving the campaigns to the grassroots across the country. 

He stressed that the decision to dissolve the council was taken by the leaders of the PSC shortly after the safe return to the country of the president-elect.

“They reviewed the operations of the TSGICC and expressed satisfaction with its numerous accomplishments such as its dogged door-to-door campaigns by its directorates, departments, support groups, members and millions of our foot soldiers across the entire country which gave the President-elect a resounding victory in the elections,” he said.

Agara said, “As national coordinator under whose command the crucial assignments were successfully conducted with ruthless efficiency, it is with humility that I hereby thank the two deputy national coordinators, the  Secretary, my management team, directorate leaders, State/LGAs coordinators, committee members, other leaders of ICC offices across board and the entire members in the various states of the Federation for working selflessly and assiduously in the face of life-threatening odds before, during and after the elections.

“Let me seize this opportunity to give assurance that your efforts are well appreciated by the President-elect. I therefore urge you to continue to keep hope alive in line with his campaign manifesto and mantra of renewed hope.

“I am fully convinced that the Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led Administration is a divine gift to all Nigerians. I am certain that his government will raise the bar of good governance to deliver the greatest good to the greatest number of the Nigerian people in a manner capable of meeting the genuine yearnings and aspirations of all Nigerians irrespective of race, creed, region, religion and political affiliation,” he said.
