The Jigawa State Governor, Muhammad Badaru Abubakar has stated that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), is the messiah Nigerians have been waiting for.
While stressing that the APC has become the party to beat, the Jigawa State governor said it has become so because of the progressive ideologies brought about over the last six years of the governance of the APC both at the Federal Government and at the States.
Governor Badaru, who said this while revalidating his APC membership card as directed by the party’s national headquarters in Abuja, hinted further that, “Today, our party is a party to beat in the context of Nigerian Political Parties’ hierarchy.”
Abubakar validated his membership registration at Kofar Arewa 002 polling unit of his home town, Babura, which signified the commencement of the registration and validation exercise all over the State.
He was accompanied by the Chairman of the membership and revalidation Committee in the State, Alhaji Ibrahim Umar Dawakiji, APC party officials, Secretary to the State government, Alhaji Adamu Abdulkadir Fanini, and top government officials.
The registration and validation exercise, which commenced this Monday, will last for two weeks, and the party is hoping to register 8 million people across the state.
It would be recalled that last week, during the APC stakeholders’ meeting, the Governor had called on party members and anyone interested to come out en mass and register.
