We’re working hard for Tinubu’s victory, APC governors assure Buhari

The Progressives Governors Forum (PGF) say they will work hard to ensure Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) standard bearer, emerges victorious in the 2023 elections.

In a statement on Saturday, Abubakar Atiku Bagudu, chairman of the forum and Kebbi state governor, said Buhari’s “inspiring leadership” is the source of the support APC enjoys across the country.

Bagudu said the APC governors are working hard to ensure that Bola Tinubu, the party’s presidential candidate, wins the 2023 elections.

“The Progressive Governors Forum joins His Excellency President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, his family, and Nigerians to celebrate his 80th birthday,” he said.

“The nation celebrates this special day with you and your family.

“We are grateful for your leadership, vision and commitment to move our dear nation forward. Your doggedness and unwavering determination to defend and secure Nigeria as a prosperous and democratic country has immeasurably stablised and restored confidence in our electoral process and party politics.

“Leaders and members of our party, All Progressives Congress (APC) are grateful to have your inspiring leadership role.

“Accordingly, our party has continued to evolve and both management of party administration and processes of candidates’ emergence are improving, which is responsible for the higher electoral advantages we have compared to other parties in the country. This accounts for the massive support of Nigerians for all our candidates for the 2023 elections at all levels.

“As we wish you a happy birthday and say a big thank you for your selfless service to our dear country, we reaffirm our commitment to work for the electoral victory of all our candidates for the 2023 elections.

“We are working hard with the abiding faith and belief to ensure that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, our presidential candidate emerges victorious and succeeds you.”
