Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), North-Central Chairmen Forum, Mr Sunday Fagbemi, has said no distractions can stop President Bola Tinubu’s administration’s transformative policy.
Fagbemi, who is also the Chairman of Kwara APC, made the statement on Thursday in Abuja while speaking with newsmen at the APC national secretariat.
Fagbemi led the party’s state chairmen from the North-Central for a condolence visit on its National Chairman, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, who recently lost his mother.
Yilwatda’s mother died on August 17 at the age of 83 at the Jos University Teaching Hospital.
Fagbemi stated that the Tinubu administration’s agenda rest on the core pillars of democracy, development, demographics, and diaspora engagement.
He stressed that the party’s state chairmen were committed to ensuring the delivery of the ‘Renewed Hope Agenda’ which according to him, was beginning to yield positive results.
“By the grace of God, we have seen some progress and development, we have seen President Tinubu weathering the storm.
“We cannot do it alone because Rome was not build in a day, even the opposition have attested that four years is not enough to fix the scattered and tattered ship.
“So he has done a lot and enough in terms of economic recovery, and we can all attest that food stuff prices are going down daily because of the diversification.
“We really can’t achieve much in four years like the opposition parties had confessed, but a lot had been achieved in the areas of the economy and infrastructure development,” Fagbemi said.
He also said the party’s state chairmen do not want to be distracted in anyway ahead of 2027 general election, but to remain focused on delivering the Renewed Hope Agenda.
Dr Aliyu Bello, the APC Chairman in Nassarawa State, also speaking, urged Nigerians to continue to support the Tinubu-led administration to enable it do more for the country and its citizens.
Bello said that even governors of Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) controlled states were happy with the Tinubu-led administration because of the increased state allocation they now received.
“The bold steps taken by our leader, President Tinubu is yielding results. We are good to go. Let us not be distracted, before the next election commences, everything will be fine.
“Nigeria is good to go for the APC because Nigeria’s project is something that is ongoing, and we cannot finish everything in one term.
“We trust the people that they have already given us their confidence and trust. We are not betraying that. We know we will do better than we are doing now,” Bello said.
He noted that the issue of insecurity in the North-Central was being addressed head-on by the Tinubu-ed administration, adding that insecurity was not peculiar to North-Central States or Nigeria generally.
“With GOD on our side, we will overcome the situation before long,” he said.
