The All Progressives Congress, APC, has said it takes the combined determination and commitment from Nigerians to have been able to rescue the country from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, after it plunged it into unimaginable economic recession.
Addressing the Palestinian Ambassador who led a five-member delegation, the APC CECPC National Secretary, Sen. John James Akpanudoedehe on behalf of Governor Buni noted that the cooperation and understanding between the State of Palestine and the Nigerian government have been a great asset.
Akpanudoedehe narrated how Nigerians massively voted for President Muhammadu Buhari-led APC government in 2015 to save the country from the rot and abyss the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) government had plunged the country.
“Despite inherited challenges, particularly the economic recession, President Buhari hit the ground running by undertaking multi-sector reforms, diversifying the economy, and implementing social investment programmes which have benefited millions of Nigerians, especially the poor.
“It is no longer business as usual where the past PDP administrations looted and shared our national resources. President Buhari has curbed corruption and theft. Our national resources are now invested massively in people-oriented programmes and critical infrastructure across the country.
He also maintained that the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led APC Caretaker committee has returned the party to the people by entrenching internal democracy in the nomination and decision-making processes of the Party.

“With a membership strength of over 40 million following the successful nationwide Party membership registration, revalidation and register update exercise, the APC is unarguably the most accepted, sought after and largest political party”.
He told the Palestinian Ambassador that he would relate details of the meeting, particularly their clamors to the CECPC National Chairman for onward communication to the government.
The CECPC Secretary was accompanied by the Director of Administration, Alh. Abubakar Suleiman; Director of Publicity, Salisu Na’inna Dambatta; Director of Organisation; Prof. Ussiju Medaner; Director of Welfare, Dr. Anietie Ofong; Director of Finance, Abubakar Suleiman and Director of Research, Planning and Strategy, Barr. Barth Ugwoke.
