One of the National Chairmanship aspirants at the just-concluded national Convention of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) Mallam Saliu Mustapha has assured the new party chairman Senator Abdullahi Adamu of his support.
During a courtesy call on Senator Adamu at his home in Abuja, the Turaki of Ilorin pledged to cooperate with the new National Working Committee (NWC) in strengthening the party structure.
Mustapha said; “I am here as a core party man to assure you, as the National Chairman of our great party, of my support and cooperation as you embark on the task of strengthening the party.
“My loyalty to APC has never been in doubt so I will remain loyal to the cause of the party under your leadership especially with the 2023 election at hand.
“Having being in the opposition for years, I know what it entails and will therefore work for unity of the party to ensure we continue with our winning streak at the centre.”
“Like all party members, I look forward to you having a fruitful tenure with more wins and expect you and your team to build on the success stories of previous national executives.
“But I also want to use the opportunity to solicit maximum support for the Kwara state chapter under the leadership of my brother, Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq to ensure that we retain control of the state next year,” he stated.
Responding, Senator Adamu expressed pleasure at the visit, saying he is prepared to work with Mallam Mustapha and all stakeholders of the party with a view to achieving success in his tenure.
He said; “It is a pleasure to have you around. I cannot run the party alone and will be open to support and assistance from key stakeholders like you for the task at hand.”
Adamu also extended a hand of fellowship to all members of the party for a successful tenure in office.
