Additionally, Niger State APC Chairman Aminu Musa Bobi, APC Zone B Chairman Walijoh Danladi Ahijo, and other prominent APC members expressed their appreciation for the transformative changes Bago’s administration has brought to the state.
They urged party members to avoid any actions that could undermine the party and to work toward the success of the APC in all upcoming elections.
