2023: Buhari Gives APC Marching Order, Says There’s No Alternative To Victory

The President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari has given the All Progressives Congress (APC) the mandate of winning the 2023 election.

Buhari made the call on Monday in Abuja during the inauguration of the Tinubu-Shettima women presidential campaign team, where he was represented by his Chief of Staff, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari.

According to him, he believes in the ability of the team to mobilize and deliver victory for the APC at the polls but they need to understand the magnitude of the responsibility committed into their hands.

”To this end, I call on all members of this committee to take on this great responsibility as a testament of your selfless service to the APC,” President Buhari said.

“I strongly believe that this committee will take the APC to greater heights by developing and implementing a collective and inclusive party strategy to ensure APC victory in the 2023 election, because there is no alternative to our victory,” he added.

The President praised the role of women in the electoral process and charged them not to limit their efforts to Abuja but ensure their presence is felt in all the 774 local government areas of Nigeria.

“The mission that lies ahead for the committee is very clear, and time is not on your side. As this launch is being hosted in Abuja, we must remember that the real work lies in far places, away from Abuja.

”The task at hand lies in over 1,000 wards, and 774 local governments across the country where a party faithful will have to make a case before fellow citizens on our party’s candidate by articulating the vision and the programme for the country.

”The campaign should therefore resist the temptation for it to be turned into an Abuja activity.

“Throughout my political journey and my tenure, as president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, women have remained the most loyal, the most supportive group in my mission for a better Nigeria,” he added.
