‘He’s tackling insecurity’ — north-west APC drums up support for Tinubu

The north-west caucus of the All Progressives Congress (APC) says it will continue to support President Bola Tinubu.

In a communique read on Sunday by Uba Sani, governor of Kaduna, the stakeholders said Tinubu is taking decisive steps to address the country’s security challenges and reflate the economy.

The caucus added that the president’s “development agenda” has positively impacted the zone.

“In view of Mr. President’s undiluted support and assistance to the North West, stakeholders called for continued support for President Tinubu’s administration as he strives to steady the ship of the Nigerian State,” the communique reads.

“The meeting commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, for his steadfast commitment to the fulfillment of his campaign promises to the Nigerian people.

“The meeting noted the decisive steps so far taken by the President in tackling Nigeria’s multitude of security and developmental challenges, and the far-reaching reforms he has initiated to reflate the economy and combat soaring inflation.

“The meeting equally commended the various security agencies working tirelessly to maintain and enhance security in the zone.

“The meeting further stated that in view of the enormity of the developmental challenges facing the North West, stakeholders from the zone will continue to seek the gracious support, assistance and intervention of Mr. President.”

The north-west APC commended Jibrin Barau, deputy senate president; and Tajudeen Abbas, speaker of the house of representatives; for the North West Development Commission bill.

The party said bills that would promote national cohesion should be given expeditious passage.

Governors Dikko Radda (Katsina), Umar Namadi (Jigawa), Nasiru Idris (Kebbi), and Ahmad Aliyu (Sokoto), were among the attendees.
