 efforts on ensuring party's unity and stability in Sokoto state){kind=link}
The Chairman of All Progressive Congress Sokoto state chapter, Alhaji Isa Achida, has urged party loyalists to support Sen. Aliyu Wamakko (APC Sokoto) efforts on ensuring party’s unity and stability in Sokoto state and beyond.
Achida made the call in an interview with the newsmen on Wednesday in Sokoto.
He described Wamakko as a pillar of Sokoto state politics and the soul holder of the APC in the state and northern Nigeria.
The party chairman emphasized that Wamakko’s open-door leadership style, selfless mentorship, and unwavering commitment to the welfare of the people are simply unmatched.
“Wamakko is not just a political leader; he is a humanitarian and a father figure to millions. He doesn’t hoard wealth, he gives generously, and his doors are always open. He is everything a true leader should be,” Achida said.
Achida further revealed that Gov. Ahmed Aliyu owes much of his success to Wamakko’s guidance and mentorship, adding that the APC’s dominance in Sokoto was a direct result of the political structure Wamakko built, which the governor has further solidified through his stellar performance.
“Our father, Wamakko, is the reason Sokoto remains solidly APC. His grassroots connection, unmatched generosity, and strategic wisdom will always make the difference,” he said.
He reassured party members and the people of Sokoto State that the APC stewardship would continue to deliver development, stability, and prosperity well beyond 2027.
Achida also disclosed that the Sokoto State chapter of APC has officially passed a resounding vote of confidence in the administration of Gov. Aliyu, citing his exceptional performance over the past two years as a benchmark for good governance in Nigeria.
He praised the governor’s bold leadership, prudent financial management, and people-centered policies.
The party leader declared that Gov. Aliyu has not only fulfilled his campaign promises but has exceeded expectations across critical sectors including water supply, education, infrastructure, civil service welfare, and security.
“ Aliyu is a worthy ambassador of the APC who, in less than two years, has achieved what his predecessor couldn’t accomplish in eight years.
” He’s not just cleaning up the mess left by the previous administration but he’s transforming Sokoto State,” said Achida.
He added that, in recognition of his outstanding service, the party has been considering adopting him as the APC’s sole candidate for the 2027 gubernatorial election, invoking the principle of right of first refusal.
“While the APC remains a democratic party open to internal contest, we are confident that no aspirant can match the track record of Gov. Aliyu. His work speaks for itself,” Achida added.
