Adamu: APC’ll win 2023 elections in fair contest

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, has said the APC was sure of victory in the 2023 general election

Adamu said this on Wednesday while receiving the Ambassador of Poland to Nigeria, Joanna Tarnawska, in his office at APC National Secretariat in Abuja.

The chairman said with the massive support the party enjoyed from over 43 million Nigerians, there was no way the party would lose the 2023 polls.

Adamu, while responding to the comments of Ambassador Tarnawska, said APC was conscious of the effects of developments in Nigeria on other African countries.

He noted that the party was prepared to conduct itself at the next year’s general election according to international best practices.

He further informed the Ambassador that because of the opportunities created by the APC, a woman gubernatorial candidate had emerged from the party in conservative northern Nigeria.

Adamu, however, called on Poland and the international community to show more understanding about Nigeria’s challenges and electoral history.

The APC chairman added that Nigeria was a developing democratic nation and lessons are being learnt in electoral processes, pledging that the ruling party will continue to do everything to advance democratic practice in Nigeria.

On her part, Tarnawska, congratulated Adamu on his emergence as the APC National Chairman, adding that Poland was interested in political developments within Nigeria and would like to see a peaceful transition to another president after the tenure of President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.

She further called on the APC to create opportunities for women and young persons to participate in the political terrain.

Tarnawska said Poland looks forward to improving bilateral diplomatic relations between both countries, particularly in improved economic relations.

She stated that Poland understood and sympathized with the challenges Nigeria was facing, especially insecurity, noting that her country had faced similar challenges in the past.

She, therefore, expressed hope that the visit would be another layer of constructive relationship between Poland and Nigeria.
