Ahmad Lawan To Igbos: Grab The Opportunity To Be At Centre Of Nigeria’s Politics

• Lawan called on all Nigerians irrespective of political, ethnic, or religious differences to support the government

Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, has wooed people from the south-eastern part of the country to join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

He made the appeal on Sunday during an interdenominational service to mark the first year anniversary of Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, asking Igbos to grab the opportunity to be at the center of Nigeria’s politics.

“I will take this opportunity to appeal to our people in the southeast, grab the opportunity to be at the center of Nigerian politics,” the Senate President said.

“The APC administration of President Muhammadu Buhari is so liberal and forthcoming to support every part of Nigeria to make sure that Nigeria is evenly developed.

“What we are witnessing here in Imo will be replicated in Ebonyi. We hope, by the grace of God, Anambra is coming on board. We are expecting Abia to be on board and Gburugburu to bring Enugu on board.”

According to Senate Lawan, Nigeria should be a united country where progressives would provide leadership for the nation’s greatness.

While noting that the country faces myriads of challenges, notably security issues, the Senate President said there is no country that develops without confronting some problems.

What matters, he explained, is the willingness of the Federal Government to tackle the issues on the ground for the betterment of the citizens.
