Borno belongs to APC

Borno belongs to APC — Zulum

Borno Governor, Professor Babagana Umara Zulum, has reaffirmed that the state remains a stronghold of the All Progressives Congress (APC), pledging total loyalty to the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The governor made the remark during the flag-off of the APC North-East e-registration workshop held in Maiduguri. Governor Zulum assured the gathering that his administration would give the necessary support to ensure the success of the exercise in the North-East. “I want to assure you that the government of Borno State under my leadership will provide the desired support to ensure the success of the APC membership e-registration exercise in the North-East,” Zulum said. “Our party members in other states governed by other political parties will also be supported to get captured,” he added. Zulum emphasised that Borno’s loyalty to the ruling party remains firm, describing it as “100 per cent APC.” “Let there be no doubt in anyone’s mind, Borno State is 100 per cent for the APC. Our loyalty to the party and its leadership is absolute,” the governor declared. He recalled the state’s experience before the APC came to power, saying Borno had endured years of insecurity and economic hardship. “Before the APC came to power, Borno State was on its knees. Our local governments were under siege, our economy was shattered, and our people lived in fear,” Zulum said. “But look at where we are today. The narrative has changed, and this is due to the relentless efforts and massive support from the APC-led Federal Government.” The governor commended the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari for its support in the fight against terrorism and the establishment of the North East Development Commission (NEDC), which he said has been instrumental in rebuilding communities and restoring infrastructure. He said President Bola Tinubu has continued to demonstrate a strong commitment to the peace and stability of the North-East. “Under our leader, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, that support has not wavered; it has grown stronger. The President has shown a deep commitment to the final restoration of peace in Borno and the entire North-East. The Federal Government continues to work with us to ensure the safe resettlement of our people and the rebuilding of their livelihoods,” Zulum said. He noted that the APC-led administration at the federal level has remained a reliable partner in the state’s recovery journey. “For the first time, our son became the Vice President of Nigeria under the APC. This is a testament to the party’s trust and confidence in Borno,” he said. The governor called on the people of the state to remain united and continue to support President Tinubu ahead of the 2027 general elections. “I wish to reiterate my call to the good people of Borno State to join me in supporting the re-election of President Tinubu in 2027. Let us begin to build that momentum now and work together to ensure his leadership continues to move our nation forward,” Zulum said. The event, which brought together national and zonal party leaders, state executives, local government chairmen, as well as members of the National and State Assemblies, was aimed at promoting the APC’s ongoing digital membership registration exercise across the region.
