The association’s chairman, Abubakar Bala, disclosed this during a press briefing in Gusau, the Zamfara State capital, saying that it would assiduously work towards the success of the Tinubu/Shettima presidential ticket of the APC in the forthcoming general elections of 2023.
According to Bala, who led 10 other executive members of the association on a solidarity visit to a member of the presidential campaign council (PCC) of the APC, Alhaji Yakubu Ahmed-BK (Maibindiga), said that the suitability of Tinubu and Shettima has made it imperative for all patriots to line up behind the ticket for sustainable national development.
He noted that what Nigeria needs now is a leadership that has been tested at several levels and has proven to be forward-looking and capable of dealing with the nation’s challenges.
