Nuhu Gidado Congratulates Barr M.A Abubakar

"Our Bauchi State gubernatorial primary election has come and gone and, my brother, Barr. M. A. Abubakar has successfully been elected to fly our party flag come 2015! Accordingly, I wish to hereby extend my CONGRATULATIONS to him especially, and to our party faithfuls. Alhamdulillah!

Success in politics, I believe, does not start and end with the reward of an office or seat, but certainly, it involves making contributions that impact positively on the system. We've collectively and, indeed, successfully been doing so and, Insha Allah, will continue to relentlessly participate in every struggle that will challenge oppression of our people with a view to promoting equity, justice and good governance. This is a task that will never be compromised.

Via PUNCH

There are strong indications that the All Progressives Congress governors may produce the party’s vice-presidential candidate for the 2015 election.

Saturday PUNCH’s investigations on Thursday in Abuja showed that the governors were demanding that one of them should be given the party’s vice-presidential slot.
