Ahead of the forthcoming National Convention of the All Progressives Congress(APC), some stakeholders from the Southeast geo-political zone are drumming support for Senator Tanko Al-Makura’s ambition.

A statement by the stakeholders signed by Chief Chibunna Ubawuike after a meeting in Owerri on Thursday urged other members of the party in the Southeast to “close ranks and queue behind Al-Makura for effective representation and leadership.”

Ubawuike who described him as “the best for the position” said “Senator Umaru Tanko AL-Makura is detribalized, a unifier, articulate, meticulous, tried, tested, pragmatic, dynamic, resourceful, youth-oriented, manager of men and resources, accountable, dependable, great mobilizer and a political pilot with requisite certifications.

“Our great party, the All Progressive Congress and Nigeria will benefit immensely from his above innate attributes and cognate experience.

“We, therefore, appeal to Southeast members and stakeholders of our great party, the APC, to unanimously support and vote en masse for the proactive and transparent statesman, who is a firm believer in equity, justice, fairness and shows firmness where necessary and flexibility where possible in all his actions as a public servant.

He abhors totalitarian, dictatorial and despotic tendencies but promotes egalitarian and libertarian actions. He is the best man for the job. The cap fits him perfectly,” Ubawuike stated.
