In a statement by Mr John Akpanudoedehe, Secretary of the Caretaker and Extra-ordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) in Abuja, the APC noted that Bagudu had contributed to its growth and that of the PGF.
Akpanudoedehe said the Kebbi state governor had displayed uncommon vision and participatory leadership, which positively impacted on the human capital development of the state, while strengthening the party and the PGF in line with its progressive ideals.
He added that the APC was proud to identify with Dogara due to his exemplary private and public dealings, having proven himself as a patriot and grassroots politician as well as having constantly displayed his time-honoured attributes of decency, transparency, hard work, Integrity and a people centric posture.
“Undoubtedly, Dogara’s recent return to the APC is a major signpost that the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led CECPC is achieving its core mandate to reposition the party”.
He pointed out that the committee was also addressing grievances and achieving true reconciliations across the party’s rank adding that “The APC family prays for Bagudu and Dogara’s good health and wisdom to undertake their public and private endeavours”.
