A coalition of APC groups in the North Central region has announced the suspension of its push for Abdullahi Umar Ganduje to become the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The Chairman of the coalition, Hon. Abdullahi Sale Zazzaga, made this known during an interview with DCL Hausa on Wednesday.
He explained that their decision came after senior figures in the region advised them to halt the agitation, particularly as the party’s NEC meeting approaches.
“Our agitation was solely for the political and economic well-being of the region,” Zazzaga said. “We have voiced our demands persistently, and we’ve been heard loud and clear. This isn’t the end of our efforts. We are advocating for the benefit of our people.”
He further stated, “We suspended this push after discussions with our superiors. We sat down together, and they pointed out the importance of the upcoming NEC meeting. They requested that we allow the NEC to make its final decision on the matter.
“We will wait and see what the NEC decides. Everyone knows our agitation is in the best interest of our people and our region, but we cannot continue for now, given the advice from our superiors.”
