The immediate past Speaker of Nasarawa State House of Assembly, Alhaji Ibrahim Abdullahi, says the All Progressives Party (APC) will rule the state beyond 2027.
Abdullahi expressed optimism that Gov. Abdullahi Sule would hand over power to another APC governor in the state come 2027.
He stated this during a reception organised by White Cap Progressive Movement (a political movement) in Nasarawa Local Government Area of the state on Sunday.
The ex-speaker hinged his optimism on the grace of God and the development that will be witnessed during Sule led administration.
Abdullahi said that Sule has done so much for the people of the state and would make sure that he hand over power to another APC governor in 2027 for continuity, consolidation and good governance in the state.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Alhaji Aliyu Tijani, the Federal Commissioner/Chief Executive Officer of the National Commission for Refugees, Migrants and Internally Displaced Persons (NCFRMI) is the Leader of the White Cap Political Movement.
The former speaker, who is the chairman of the occasion, appreciated the Chairman, Nasarawa Local Government Council, Mr Sani Otto, and other members of the movement for organising the event and prayed God to bless them.
He appreciated the people of the area and others for massively voting for Gov. Sule and APC in the March 18 general election.
The former speaker also appreciated the governor for his developmental strides in the state.
On local government election, he said that the party and the people of the state would only field and support credible and competent aspirants.
“What the people want is what His Excellency, Engr. A A Sule, will support during the local government election in the state,” Abdullahi said.
The former speaker called on the people of the area and the state at large to continue to pray and support Sule to succeed.
On his part, Otto explained that the event was organised in order to celebrate the victory of Sule at the Supreme Court.
“We thank God for the victory of His Excellency, Engr. A A Sule at the Supreme Court.
“It is a victory for all of us because without the victory we and those holding political positions and benefitting from the government have gone.
The council chairman said that the movement was formed in order to create political awareness and direction to the people in the state.
