2023: Give APC 1.2 Million Votes – Lawan To Yobe Residents

The people of Yobe State have been asked to give the All Progressive Congress (APC) at least 1.2 million votes in the forthcoming elections.

The Senate President, Ahmad Lawan made the passionate appeal at a fundraising ceremony organised by the Yobe State APC Campaign Council in Damaturu.

Naija News reports that the president of the senate remarked that Yobe State wants to compete with every other state as far as votes are concerned.

He said, “Yobe is known to be a guaranteed vote basket for the APC. We want to compete with every State in this country as far as votes for the APC are concerned.

“We have the people. We have the will and we have our way by the grace of God to vote for all our candidates from the top to the bottom.

“Mai Mala Buni has done extremely well and he can do better when he takes the mantle of the governorship for the second term.

“We are targeting 1.2 million votes for our president and nothing less than 1.2 million for our governorship and deputy governorship candidate in the State.”

Speaking about the fundraising event, Lawan explained that it was meant to finance logistical support for the elections.

The nation’s chief lawmaker argued that the State was on the trajectory of development, saying Senator Ibrahim Gaidam built some foundations before the present administration in the State took over.
