South-West group urges Sani Musa to vie for APC chairmanship position

A South-West Pressure Group, the Lisabi Progressives Union, has prevailed on Senator Mohammed Sani Musa to contest the vacant position of the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The leadership of the group at a press briefing, yesterday, in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, said it decided to support the ambition of the APC Niger East senator after a careful examination of the candidates who have recently been linked for the position.

The group’s National President, Adeleke Lukman, who spoke on behalf of the union, said as members of the progressives family, they welcome the party’s resolve to present the best candidates for the Presidency in 2023 and the national chairmanship position.

He noted further that it is the right time for the region to shun politics of bitterness and support a strong candidate that would bring good governance to the region and the nation.

Adeleke said the group had concluded plans to support Musa, who he described as “youth-friendly” and a “bridge-builder” across the region. He condemned the call for the boycott of the 2023 elections, saying doing so, will be counter-productive from achieving their set goals.
