Ahead of the ruling All Peoples Congress , APC, national convention on the 26th of February, 2022, youth groups have begun to drum support for one of the frontline chairmanship aspirants, Senator Mohammed Sani Musa, representing Niger East at the Senate
The Youths have gone ahead to flood major cities in Nigeria with posters of Senator Mohammed Musa, who is the Chairman, Senate Committee on Services.
One of the Youth leaders, Ambassador Bello Olu John, told newsmen in an interview in Abuja, that majority of youths are clamouring for the emergence of the Senator because of his clean record in public service.
Bello John, who is an aspirant for the House of Representatives seat for the Okene/Magongo constituency in Kogi state, explained that among the twelve aspirants jostling for the position of Chairman of APC, only Senator Mohammed Musa, has no baggage of corruption label on him.
” That’s the major reason the youths from across the country are mobilising for him to emerge as the Chairman of APC, we intend to carry the campaign to the ward, local government, state and national levels of the ruling party”, he assured.
Ambassador Bello John said the stakeholders of the party hierarchy will agree on one of the Aspirants before the convention.
” Most of the party stalwarts know the implication of going to the convention with a divided front” Ambassador John stated.
Twelve aspirants are currently in the race for the chairmanship seat, but three are ahead of others to clinch the coveted seat.
Our checks revealed that the front runners include Senator Mohammed Musa, 54 years old, representing Niger East; Saliu Mustapha, a former Deputy National Chairman of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change and Senator Tanko Al- Makura, former Governor of Nassarawa State.
