According to a statement by the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the Deputy President of the Senate Ismail Mudashir, the Chairman of the forum, Hon Adamu Mukhtar, said the Deputy President of the Senate has always been at the forefront of the development of Kano State and the APC.
Urging him to sustain the tempo, he said they are working hard to unite the party in all the nooks and crannies of Kano State.
” You are the bulldozer of the development of Kano State. Please continue with the good work you are doing. Don’t relent. We are solidly behind you,” he said.
Stressing the importance of unity in the party, he said, “We will embark on a massive campaign across the 44 local government areas. Many youth who are members of the opposition parties have indicated interest in joining us in the APC.”
Responding, the Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Barau I Jibrin, commended the youth for mobilising for the party.
” This is a good initiative. This was what we did in the Second Republic. We mobilised for our party without having any intention to contest for elections. We were only after the success of our party. I’m happy you have embarked on the same journey,” he said.
He told the youth that the future of Kano and, indeed, the country is in their hands.
” The future of Kano and Nigeria politics is in your hands. The future is yours. Take this seriously. You will go places. We are with you 100 per cent.
” I also urge you always to ensure that the right people are given the mantle of leadership, from ward to all levels. This is the way to go. If the right persons are given, victory, Insha Allah, will be ours. If we form government in Kano State, youth will be the greatest beneficiaries.
