Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, governor of Kano State, congratulated former Lagos State governor Bola Tinubu on his victory in the All Progressives Congress presidential primary election on Wednesday.
In a congratulatory message personally signed by him, the governor stated that Tinubu’s election as the APC’s flagbearer in the 2023 general election would be a victory for the Nigeria project.
The Jagaban, he says, “has the capacity to provide the needed leadership that would consolidate and continue to ensure the country’s democratic gains.”
Ganduje praised the President, Muhammadu Buhari , for creating an enabling environment that produced the standard bearer, the National Working Committee, the delegates, and all other organs and structures of the party across the federation for their collective efforts in ensuring the convention’s success.
The governor also hailed other aspirants for their remarkable sportsmanship which they displayed throughout the painstaking consultation period up to the convention and particularly Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who submitted themselves to transparent democratic exercise.
He also called on Tinubu as party leader to “bring his political and socio-economic experience to bear on party leadership and members to close ranks and work for its victory in the forthcoming election.”
Ganduje also charged all party members to remain United and focused as the party marched with Nigerians to victory in 2023.
