Amina Mohammed, Lafia.
Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Wakama Electoral Ward of Nassarawa-Eggon local government area (LGA) have commended Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa state for the ongoing construction of Alushi/Awayi/Wakama Road.
The stakeholders gave the commendation at a meeting to review the outcome of the February 25 presidential and National Assembly elections on Monday in Wakama community of Nassarawa-Eggon LGA.
According to them, the road, if completed, would open up the areas for easy transportation of people and farm produce.
Speaking, Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the governor and chieftain of the party, Mr. Bala Moses-John, said the construction of the road was a dream come true for the people of Alushi and Wakama electoral wards.
He explained that the road connecting the two communities would benefit the people of the area economically and boost commercial activities.
The SSA to the governor also advised the Wakama people to support Governor Sule’s re-election bid as well as vote for the APC House of Assembly candidate for good governance in the constituency.
“We should shun religious and ethnic politics and embrace each other irrespective of whatever differences.
“God created us different tribes and religions because he wanted it as such; if not, he would have created us as just one tribe and religion,” he added.
He, therefore, appealed to the APC members to forget about insinuations making the rounds to divide them and work together for the victory of their party in the March 18 elections.
Also, the Councillor, representing Wakama in the legislative arm of Nassarawa-Eggon LGA, Mr. Thomas Anyu-Bako, commended the governor for the road project.
He explained that the new road, when completed, would make travelling to the Alushi and Akpata community of Wakama very easy unlike before.
He also praised Governor Sule for the employment opportunities given to their sons and daughters in the College of Education, Akwanga; College of Agriculture, Science and Technology, Lafia; Isa Mustapha Agwai Polytechnic Lafia as well as the Teachers’ Service Commission.
Bako called on the people in the area to shun religious and ethnic politics and vote again for Governor Sule and Jacob Kudu, the APC House of Assembly candidate to ensure justice, equity, and fairness.
On his part, Thomas Dasu, Chairman of Wakama APC stakeholders, called on the party members to work together to reward the governor and the APC.
