While expressing optimism in the ability of the new National Chairman and the NWC members to rally around APC members and other Nigerians to take the party to victory, the Deputy Speaker, in a statement, praised the fatherly role and guidance of President Muhammadu Buhari.

He said the President’s role led to the consensus arrangement that produced the new leaders of the party and further consolidated the unity and stability of the party.

“I also want to congratulate the national and zonal officers, the delegates, and the teeming supporters of our great party for demonstrating the spirit of unity of purpose and the indivisibility of our great party.

“Special appreciation must go to our leader and our amiable President for providing leadership and guidance that saw to the successful and rancor-free conduct of the convention,” the statement added.

Wase also commended the Caretaker/Extraordinary National Convention Planning Committee, headed by Governor Mai Mala Buni of Yobe State, for organizing a successful National Convention and expressed confidence in the new NWC to steer the party to greatness.
