Benue State Governor Governor Hyacinth Alia has charged the newly- sworn in National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje, to enhance unity among members of the party across the country.
Alia made the call while answering questions from State House Correspondents shortly after he paid homage to the Vice President, Kashim Shettima, at the Presidential Villa, in Abuja.
The immediate past governor of Kano State, emerged as the national chairman of the APC at the end of the 12th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the party on Thursday in Abuja.
Alia therefore emphasised the need for Ganduje and the new National Secretary of the party, Ajibola Bashir, to promote national unity in the country.
“We came for last night’s APC caucus meeting and then today we had the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting. National issues were tabled and unanimously we elected the National Chairman and the National Secretary of the party as well.
“And these are all faithful servants of the party and the nation. So, we are so pleased at what we all arrived at. We call on them to work for the unity of the party, unity of the nation, and to continue the hard work that was done in the past.
“We need continuity. We have this regime of Renewed Hope. We all have to make our nation continually great. And it’s nothing less that is expected of the new leadership,” he said.
