The All Progressives Congress, (APC), in the Northcentral, has called on President Bola Tinubu to prevail on the party to zone its National Chairman to the region, following the resignation of Abdullahi Ganduje.
The Chairman of the APC North-Central Forum and a member of the party’s Presidential Campaign Council, Saleh Zazzaga, said the region should be allowed to complete the tenure of former National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu.
In a statement he issued at the weekend, Zazzaga said APC should redeem itself from the longstanding injustice to the region.
Zazzaga stressed that the Northcentral has competent leaders to fill the position of APC’s National Chairman.
The statement reads: “We had consistently maintained that the position of National Chairman should remain in the North-Central to complete the tenure of Senator Abdullahi Adamu.
“We even went to court to pursue this demand. However, when the National Executive Committee (NEC) ratified Ganduje’s appointment, we chose to suspend the agitation for the sake of the party’s stability.
“This is not just a demand based on sentiment. The North-Central has capable hands that can lead the APC to greater electoral victories.
“Returning the chairmanship to the zone will consolidate the party’s progress and stability.”
