2024: APC working to increase numbers of Legislators, Governors – Ganduje
Dr Abdullahi Ganduje, the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman has said that party under his leadership will work to increase the numbers of governors and legislatures it currently has across the country.
He said this on Thursday in Abuja while speaking with newsmen, adding that the party would remain active throughout the year 2024.
“Our blueprint is to increase the numbers of legislators and governors we have in the country, and by implications the numbers of State House of Assembly members.
“That is why we said that the APC will be active throughout the year. In our tradition, usually, political parties as institutions are only active during the electioneering.
“But in developed democracies, political parties as an institution are active because they are not only limited to election, but recruitment of membership,” Ganduje said.
He explained that a political party was a two-way traffic because it was expected to educate the people on progress made by government and also make recommendations on its manifestos.
Ganduje said this was how government was assessed, adding that the ongoing renovation and new innovations at the party’s national secretariat was for its progress and the nation.
“Before now, there was no Church within the party’s secretariat, nobody went to church on the premises, but now, we have a new church building going on.
“We have shops to avoid street hawking around the building and we have concrete drainage,” he said.
He added that the party’s media centre in terms of outlook and equipment would be upgraded under his chairmanship to make it modern.
“We are not in analogue period, but, I think what I have seen here is analogue,” the APC national chairman said. (https//:newsatlarge.ng)
