During the presentation, Governor Badaru said, “The National Convention of our party held from 26th and ended on 27th March when we did the swearing-in of the National Chairman and the Secretary of our great Party.

“There were 78 positions contested for the NEC members and the zonal executives. But from these 78 positions, a consensus was achieved in 66 positions which means that positions that were contested and elections conducted were 12. This demonstrates the fact that the APC is indeed one family and the members will always listen to President Muhammadu Buhari and his call for peace and unity in the party.

“So, we thank all the contestants for really behaving in a mature and understanding manner for the interest and progress of our party. They are heroes of our party. Despite their personal interests, they chose to withdraw to allow for consensus so that our party will come out stronger and indeed this was what happened. I thank them and I believe they deserve all our commendations and the party will never forget them,” he said.

In his response, APC Chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, said, “The National Convention is all about electing new officers for our great party. And the Election/Planning Sub-Committee conducted its assignments in a very efficient, honest and very equitable manner as circumstances of the day permitted. We appreciate you.

“We have zero tolerance for failure in this new dispensation of our great party because we have an enormous responsibility ahead… In the coming elections, we cannot move the way we are to the election. We have a marching order from the leader of this party, President Muhammadu Buhari. We will have to deliver, there will be no excuses whatsoever and we need every hand on deck for this to happen,” he said.
