APC National Chairmanship: Yahaya Bello a Unifier, Strategist, Game – Changer – Group
An APC group has called on the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to consider former Kogi state governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello for the position of national chairman of the party, owing to his political sagacity.
The group, Coalition 4 Ododo said the North Central zone has made enormous and unequalled contributions to the growth and development of the party, which is demonstrable in their electoral votes and obedience to party directives.
In a statement made available to newsmen on Tuesday in Abuja and signed by Hon. Mohammed Sule (Sunday Sea), the group Chairman, noted that the party should field the best man for that most coveted office if the party is to effectively checkmate the shenanigans of the newly constituted coalition under the Africa Democratic Congress (ADC).
The statement reads in party, “the APC has made remarkable progress in advancing the cause of the Nigerian project and to sustain that momentum would rest on having an excellent national chairman to pilot the party to greater height particularly against the backdrop of a looming 2027 general election.
“Former Kogi state Governor, Yahaya Bello a formidable pillar of the APC in the North Central zone, who is a powerful grassroot mobilizer and youth advocate, a unifier and strategist of extraordinary dexterity, who consistently delivered APC victories at the state and national levels, should be a frontline contender.
“Our party needs his courage, his conviction, his youthful vigour and strategic insight to turn its fortune around and defeat the conglomerate of internally displaced politicians tagged African Democratic Congress (ADC).
According to the group, it was out of Yahaya Bello’s unique devotion to the APC vision and mission for Nigeria, that he sought and made a gentleman of extraordinary caliber and capacity like Allahji Ahmed Usman Ododo Governor of Kogi state to inspire a renewed hope and transformational governance and the results speak for themselves, because evidently Kogi state is solidly aligned and loyal to President Bola Tinubu’s agenda for the nation.
Speaking further the group said, Yahaya Bello’s successes has no doubt attracted envy as it should, hence the desperate efforts to paint him in black light but that should not be allowed to overshadow his strength and extraordinary potential.
“Yahaya Bello’s staunch support for the APC and especially for Tinubu’s 2023 electoral victory has evoked a campaign of calumny in the camp of the opposition, but such detractions and distractions should not be allowed to sway the party from getting the best hand for the job, which given the enormity of the task is Yahaya Bello”.
“Yahaya Bello has what it takes to deliver an APC victory in 2027, he has been tested and proven and given that of all leaders of the APC who lead Tinubu’s 2023 electoral machine have been compensated except him, this opening seem divinely orchestrated for Yahaya Bello to make history as national chairman”, the statement noted.
