elcomes Former Sokoto Governorship Candidate to APC, Urges Party Unity
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has welcomed a former Sokoto State governorship candidate into the All Progressives Congress (APC), describing the move as a significant boost to the party’s growing strength ahead of future political contests.
The President urged party members and supporters in Sokoto State to embrace the new entrant and work together in the interest of unity, progress, and the continued growth of the APC.
Tinubu said the decision of the former governorship candidate to join the ruling party reflects increasing confidence in the APC’s vision and ongoing reforms aimed at promoting national development and economic stability.
He stressed that the party remains open to individuals who share its commitment to democratic governance, inclusive leadership, and sustainable development, regardless of their previous political affiliations.
The President further called on APC leaders and stakeholders to put aside personal differences, strengthen internal cohesion, and focus on building a united political structure capable of delivering good governance and electoral success.
According to him, unity within the party remains essential to consolidating the achievements of the current administration and ensuring continued progress at both the national and state levels.
Political observers believe the latest defection could reshape the political landscape in Sokoto State as parties continue consultations and strategic realignments ahead of the next election cycle.
The APC has continued to witness the influx of politicians from other political parties in recent months, a development party leaders say reflects growing public confidence in its leadership and governance agenda.
