In view of the above mentioned qualities, we are calling on the leadership and stakeholders of our great party, the APC to zone the Senate Presidency to North Central to enable the senator to become the next Senate President in the 10th National Assembly.
“It could be recalled that Senator Musa contested for the national chairmanship of the APC during the 2022 APC national convention that produced the present National working committee. But due to his loyalty and love for our party, he sacrificed his ambition and stepped down for the party to have a single consensus candidate. Such sacrifice and selflessness, only few, special individuals can do, hence the need to applaud, appreciate, and reward him, ” the group said.
