The All Progressives Congress (APC) has said that the victories at the bye-elections for the Katsina North; Bauchi South Senatorial seats and the Lokoja/Kogi Federal Constituency House of Representatives seat had demonstrated the confidence and trust by the people in the President Muhammadu Buhari administration.
In a statement by the Acting National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Yekini Nabena, the APC commended the electorate for coming out enmasse to vote for APC candidates in the weekend bye-elections.
“We also congratulate our flagbearers, Hon. Ahmed Babba-Kaita (Katsina); Hon. Lawal Yahaya Gumau (Bauchi) and Haruna Isa (Kogi) on their victories.
“Since assuming office, President Buhari has demonstrated the political will and remains solidly committed to the task of building a new Nigeria in line with the Change Agenda we promised to the electorate and the progressive ideals we stand for.
“As a political party, we remain genuinely committed to address our challenges, reconcile legitimate aggrieved interests and emerge as a more united and stronger political fighting force as we face General Elections in 2019.
“Like every other country, we have our challenges, but they are surmountable. We have an administration working day and night to surmount them and put the country on the right pedestal.
“With the continued cooperation and support of Nigerians, we have good reason to look forward to the future with great hope,” the statement read.
