Senator Muhammad Musa (APC-Niger) has joined the race for the All Progressives Congress (APC) national chairmanship, promising to re-engineer its internal structure if elected.
Musa said this on Friday in Abuja when he spoke with newsmen on his plans for the party, assuring also to ensure the supremacy of the party.
“It is with overwhelming joy and excitement that I wish to announce that I, Sen. Muhammad Sani Musa will be presenting myself as a candidate for the position of the APC National Chairman.
“If giving the opportunity to lead the party, I will completely re-engineer its internal structures and workings and make it adaptive to the yearnings and aspirations of members and Nigerians.
“I will be adaptive to participatory and affiliative work style that will usher visionary and pacesetting leadership that will transform the party to a democratic institution that Nigerians will proudly continue to embrace.
“If we hope to maintain credibility over time, then we must adhere faithfully to the same organisational expectations that our context asks of our teams,” he said.
Musa currently representing Niger East at the National Assembly.
He noted that leadership had a great responsibility that required high sense of innovations and vision towards changing things for the better.
While admitting that being APC national chairman was an onerous task, the aspirant said he had the political clout, extensive experience and sphere of influence to lead the party.
The APC National Convention is slated for February 2022 to elect new National Working Committee (NWC) members to manage its affairs.
The party Caretaker and Extra-ordinary Convention Planning Committee (NWC) led by Governor Mai Mala Buni of Yobe, is overseeing its affairs.
So far about 10 aspirants have indicated interest in the APC national chairmanship.
They included former Governors Tanko Al Makura (Nasarawa), Ali-Modi Sheriff (Borno), George Akure (Benue), Abdullahi Adamu (Nasarawa), Abdulaziz Yari (Zamfara), Isa Yuguda (Bauchi), Kashim Shettima (Borno) and Danjuma Goje (Gombe).
