He described members of the party as ever committed to drive the party vehicle to victory come 2027 elections, urged them to maintain the unity of oneness.
To the new state executives, he said the growth of the party is dependent on their ability to cooperate and co-inhabit, tracing witch-hunting and other vices as quick means of bringing a party down and inactive.
“Our party parades men and women of substance who have the capability and capacity to wrestle power from the ruling APC come 2027 elections.
