Ahead of 2023 general election, a group operating under the aegis of the ‘Concerned Northern APC Youth Forum”, has revealed it has consulted widely as an advocacy arm of the ruling party and concluded that the Executive governor of Ebonyi State, Engr. David Nweze Umahi was the people’s wish for 2023 presidency.
The group which is northern based, said it has toured all the nineteen States and interacted, noting that equity demands that the presidency be zoned to the South and micro-zoned to the Southeast, insisting that if that is done, it would strengthen the bond of unity of the nation more than ever.
Speaking at a World Press Conference on Tuesday in Abuja, Chairman of the group, Hon. Suleiman Liba said, it was important for the APC to strictly allow internal democracy to minimize those issues that may put the party at risk.
He said, the rescheduled National Convention was an opportunity to allow people play roles that deepensp democracy.
“Our body, the Concerned Northern APC Youth Forum just completed our consultation tour of the entire 19 states and the people are not expecting anything less from the party hierarchy.” said the Chairman.
“On the basis of the above, the Concerned APC Northern Youth Forum further throw her weight behind the candidature of Engr. David Nweze Umahi for President as it’s reflects the wish of the people especially from the North where we carried out a very successful consultation.”
He also commended the masses whom he referred to as stakeholders within the process of electioneering, for their readiness and resolve towards participating in the elections, while he further applauded the youths within the Northern part of the country.
