Al-Makura the former governor of Nassarawa State, who is also the Senator representing Nasarawa South in the National Assembly will soon be rewarded as a minister in the administration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu who is presently the president elect. He is really in a vantage position to clinch the position in the new administration.
He worked very hard for the party during the last presidential election and deserved to be rewarded as a minister.
He is prepared because this is a party that he was opportune to be at the very beginning amongst people who by providence came together with our leaders to find a common ground where we will consolidate the gains of our nationhood. Oh yes because never in the history of this country have we had an opportunity where every part of this country came together, despite our different tendencies to agree to work together as one united team – to ensure national unity and national cohesion. So with that opportunity to salvage this country, I feel at this point, when such efforts have yielded a lot of fruits, are good to go to the next level and we are faced with challenges of transition, he is truly ok for such position.
This is because the symbol of unity, the symbol of that success is on its way out in the next month. That is why he was motivated to partake in gunning and supported Sen. Ahmed Bola Tinubu to win the presidential election to sustain the legacies and also to ensure the indivisibility of that cohesion as one people, one destiny. So.
The Progressives Congress For Solidarity Movement Worldwide has asked President Muhammadu Buhari, Ahmed Bola Tinubu the president elect and other leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to ensure the emergence Senator Umaru Tanko Al-Makura as a minister.
Al-Makura is the best man for ministerial position.
“We hereby strongly advise Ahmed Bola Tinubu the president elect not to abandon his long-term political associate, Sen. Umaru Tanko Al-Makura who stood by him when others worked against him respectively.
“Sen. Al-Makura conquered the political odds through fair means but his traducer always bamboozled his way through unfair, undemocratic means,”
I am not a prophet of doom. People just speculate about negative prophecies. As for me, the more the merrier. This party is sophisticated, it’s cosmopolitan, it’s widespread and you should expect some kind of combustion. It’s natural because psychologists say no two persons are the same. We should expect many more ambitious ideas and aspirations. I believe given the size of the party, we should not develop goose pimples by the different ways people are scheming or working hard to attain any position.
I am very optimistic that Ahmed Bola Tinubu the president elect and the entire APC will surprise Nigerians. That at the end of the May 29th, the party will become stronger, more united and more confident and by the grace of God, the winning streak we had, will be more than double.
The APC has responsible leadership in the party. It derive its inspiration from the steadfastness of Mr President and for sure they will have a very successful transition because everything will go positively, and in the next administration justice will be done.
The administration will give a level playing field. if adhered to, and the guidance of the president who is known for his values, and attributes, the administration will be rancour-free, successful and will be the beginning of the winning streak and strength of the Party.
Some people believe that President Buhari is the rallying point of the APC. Do you think APC will survive beyond Buhari in 2023?
Sen. Almakura said, that is why those of us that are his political sons, who have been shaped by his ideas and steadfastness want to be part of the system that will ensure a smooth transition. I believe that those qualities of the president have been imbibed by many political leaders in this country; ministers, governors, senators members of the House of Representatives. If today the president goes, I believe he has left a substantial amount of chaperoning that we can safely say that those values that he has worked hard to establish within the political space will be sustained and if possible improved upon. And I want to assure you that most of the people that you will find as leaders of the party among any of these politicians have great passion, admirations respect for Mr President and with that, some of us are sure that even after he leaves, we will be guided by those values, those attributes. By 2023, even if Buhari would have transited, he will be right within the system. This is because by the special grace of God, some of them he gave positions will be within the scheme of things and it will be like Buhari has gone, Buhari has come back.
People should not crucify people who have these views. People can have views that are personal and with certain reasons, but as far as I am concerned, the party constitution does not talk about zoning, whether north or south or whatever. If you are talking about experience or what has gone by, one can look at the reasons for selection for a presidential position. It might be guided by the constitution does not make any categorical statement, even if I have a personal view, I will not be able to express it.
I do not see anyone as any threat with due respect. They are the party that has been fast nose-diving right from the time we took over from them in 2015 because you can see that even as early as just last year, very prominent stakeholders, public officials that occupy very important positions in the PDP were trooping to the APC. The APC is daily gaining ground. How do you have any fear about a party that is losing membership almost daily? Secondly, we are doing the best we can as an incumbent government to facilitate the dividends of democracy in various forms. I think everything is going positively for us to trounce the PDP in 2023. We have all the signs that come 2023, the number of losses PDP suffered in 2019 will nearly double in 2023.
