The Forum of Ward Chairmen of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has endorsed former Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje, for the position of National Chairman of the party.
It was gathered that the endorsement was made public by the Director General of the Forum, Hon. Yakubu Ishaya, at a press conference in Abuja on Tuesday.
Ishaya revealed that the forum unanimously endorsed Ganduje because he possesses all the qualities desired of a politician to fit in as APC National Chairman.
Ishaya, however, described Ganduje as a man of conscience who is responsible for most infrastructural development of Kano State.
According to Politics Nigeria, the chairmen were of the opinion that Ganduje being a party man who contributed significantly to the victory of President Bola Tinubu, believes in the ideology of Mr President and remains the best party man to step into the office as the National Chairman of APC.
Hon. Ishaya noted that the party should not be at variance with President Tinubu if it must make headway as a ruling party and a seating government.
The Director General posited that the APC is too sensitive to be left without a National Chairman, especially at this crucial time when the government is just being formed.
The Forum appreciated the Progressives Governors’ Forum for its effort in ensuring a repositioned APC through recommendations and attestation of Ganduje as the next National Chairman.
The forum also appealed to President Tinubu to endorse Abdullahi Ganduje as National Chairman of the party for a better tomorrow.

“Today, we, the grassroot Chairmen of the Party, unanimously endorsed His Excellency, Alhaji Abdullahi Ganduje, the immediate past Governor of Kano State as APC National Chairman.
“Ganduje has distinguished himself over the years. From being a civil servant, he became a local government chairman and subsequently elected Governor of Kano State” Hon. Ishaya said.
“It is indeed, an era of new beginning where the party must get it right or risk our continuous stay in power. We are grateful to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the leader of the APC worldwide and appeal to him to whole heartedly endorse Abdullahi Ganduje as National Chairman of our party for a better tomorrow,” he added.
