APC national chair Abdullahi Ganduje says the reforms introduced by the President Bola Tinubu-led administration will take Nigeria to the next level of development.

Mr Ganduje said this on Friday in Abuja when the party’s Forum of Local Government Area Chairmen visited the APC’s National Working Committee.

The former Kano governor said the reforms and policies introduced by the Tinubu administration would take the country to greatness. 

He added that the party’s leadership would not take its local government chairpersons for granted because they remained its foot soldiers.

Mr Ganduje explained that the APC had the highest number of local government areas and states in the federation because it was a grassroots political party.

“We know how you are bearing the demands of the party followers, especially during election times and primaries. We know how difficult it is for you, so we regard you as our foot soldiers, and of course, we appreciate you,” he said.

Mr Ganduje added, “He (Mr Tinubu) (Mr Tinubu) is a great leader because he is bold enough to take some decisions which previous administrations could not take. And very soon, you will start seeing the positive effects of the reforms that he is introducing. Our refineries will soon be producing abundant fuel.

“It is all over the world now that the narrative is changing about the use of petrol, CNG vehicles will soon be on ground where transportation will be cheaper. The reforms the Tinubu-led administration is introducing will take Nigeria to the next level.”

Earlier, Norbert Sochukwudinma, the forum’s national secretary, who led the delegation, said the visit was to pledge the party’s unalloyed loyalty to Mr Ganduje and the party’s NWC.
