The APC South-South youth leader, Gabriel Iduseri, praised the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led Caretaker Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee during a zonal youth leadership, sensitization, and capacity building meeting for newly elected youth leaders of the party in Benin City.

Buni’s leadership qualities and activities, he said, contributed to the successful conduct of ward, local government, and state congresses, culminating in the national convention.

He said, “We, the youths of the APC in the South-South zone are ready for the next level the party is going to. We have come together as one family and preaching unity and working together for the progress of the party and the country. We are also clamouring for inclusiveness in the party and in the governance of the country.

“We all know that the journey of the APC in the last four years has been a bit difficult with divergent interests but here we are standing together again, ready to carry on and change the narratives of our zone.

“There is nothing that is as strong as a united house, a united party, and a united zone. My message to the leaders of APC in the South-South zone is that they need to be united in their political approach because a divided house cannot achieve anything meaningful, just as nothing good can come out of a war-torn zone.”
