Having Wike Around Will Boost APC’s Chances Of Success In 2027 – Ganduje

The National Chairman of All Progressives Congress, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje has come out to open up on why Nyesom Wike visited him.

He recently stressed that the Minister-designate is fully ready to cooperate with the ruling party, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, Wike simply visited to congratulate him for his latest political achievement, so he took the opportunity to congratulate him in return after being named a Minister.

Ganduje added that having Wike around will definitely boost APC’s chances of success in the 2027 general elections.

His words, “You know Wike is a honourable Minister designate so he came, we discussed, because I was looking for him to congratulate him for that. He also came to congratulate me.”

“We discussed that when he becomes minister fully, he will work very hard in order to move the ministry he is given forward and he is ready to cooperate. But we didn’t discuss the issue of his coming to APC or not coming to APC. That issue will arise later.”

“Having Wike will certainly improve the chances of this our party, especially in 2027, and not only that we are coming out with a new blueprint to increase the followership of the party and this will include all strata of officials; those who are in APC and those who are in other political parties. I assure you very soon some of the political parties will even merge with the APC. We are doing that underground.”

“But the spirit of national unity does not mean the spirit of one party in Nigeria. Spirit of national unity means spirit of national competence and spirit of national capacity.”
