All Progressives Grand Alliance(APGA) has advised the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi and his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) counterpart, Atiku Abubakar to join hands with President Bola Tinubu to develop Nigeria.
Gatekeepers News reports that the National Chairman of the party, Sylvester Ezeokenwa, gave this advice while hailing the victory of President Tinubu, at the Supreme Court.
Ezeokenwa, while addressing members of the Nigeria Union of Journalists NUJ, during a courtesy visit at the APGA zonal secretariat in Akwa, said Tinubu won the February 25 presidential election convincingly, adding, ” There was no need for such litigations”
He noted that the Apex Court’s verdict on the petitions filed against Tinubu by Obi of LP and Atiku of PDP showed that Tinubu won the February 25, 2023 presidential elections.
Ezeokenwa urged the opposition parties and other Nigerians to join hands with Tinubu to develop the country.
While noting that the President has started well going by his policies, he urged him to make sure he fulfils up to 50% of his campaign promises and work towards moving the country forward.
Ezeokenwa said, “Tinubu should endeavour to implement at least 50 per cent of programmes in his development agenda.
“If the President can implement up to 50 per cent of his programmes, the nation will witness rapid transformation in the near future.
“APGA has positioned itself in a vantage position to win more elective positions in the country during the next electioneering period.
“All post-primary elections bickerings which had in the past held the party to ransom, would no longer repeat themselves.
“Henceforth, we would insist on transparent primary elections in all the elective positions. Journalists as truly the watchdogs, they have a vital role to play in nation-building.”
