The All Progressives Congress in the South-East has urged the Rivers State Governor, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, to prepare for what it described as arduous task of leading the party to victory in next year’s general elections.
The party asked Amaechi to be courageous in the push to unseat the ruling Peoples Democratic Party through the ballot next year following his appointment as the head of the General Muhammadu Buhari Campaign Committee.
The party said its recent primaries across the country for aspirants seeking elective offices on its platform, which it described as rancour-free, was an indication that the party was poised for change.
In a statement by its Publicity Secretary in the South-East, Mr. Osita Okechukwu, the party said that Amaechi “automatically and patriotically redefined Nigeria’s political landscape” the day he dumped the PDP for the APC.
Recalling that some people claimed on July 31, 2013 when the APC was registered by the Independent National Electoral Commission that the party would not last one year, Okeckukwu said the party had crossed all hurdles to the “chagrin of prophets of doom” and now waiting to take over at the federal level through a legitimate approach.
He said, “Our confidence is boosted more by the singular fact that Governor Amaechi is ready to lead a campaign team of our great party to victory, given his sterling qualities as a man of courage, focus and fearless fighter.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
