President of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio has described the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje as a great grassroot mobilizer.
Akpabio, in a congratulatory message signed by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Hon. Eseme Eyiboh and addressed to Ganduje as he celebrates 74th birthday, said that the celebrant is also “a stabilizer, astute politician and an unrepentant progressive.”
The Senate President noted that Ganduje has been able to restore peace and sanity in the party in a few months of his leadership, praising him for his ingenuity in mobilizing people and instilling a sense of belonging to all party men.
He said since Ganduje ascended the seat of national chairman, “The hitherto rancorous atmosphere at the headquarters and in most state chapters of the party have been doused and sanity is gradually returning to the party.
“I wish to heartily join other well-wishers, business and political associates, family members and friends in celebrating a great mobiliser, an astute politician, an unrepentant progressive and a stabilizer; my chairman, His Excellency, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, the National Chairman of the biggest political party in Africa, the All Progressives Congress (APC) in celebrating him on his 74th birthday.
“It is my prayer that the Almighty God will bless you with many more years of healthy and productive living, so that our upcoming leaders will savour the wisdom and indelible legacies you have etched on the sands of history in every position you occupied since you emerged on the political scene in 1979.
“Mr. Chairman, your enviable contributions in driving and sustaining our current democratic experiment are never in doubt. We cherish your vision and the drive to sustain the successes recorded by our great party and your unshakable belief in the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”
The Senate President expressed confidence in the ability of Dr. Ganduje to turn around the fortunes of the APC and help President Tinubu in restoring the faith of Nigerians in Project Nigeria through the provision of purposeful and development-induced leadership that would once again put smiles on the faces of average Nigerians.
