The claim by opposition parties that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is destroying them is a consequence of the performance of the ruling party, according to Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule.
Sule was reported to have said in an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics that the APC is doing better than the opposition political parties.
Sule said the opposition parties believe it is being destroyed because the APC is doing better than expected.
“If anything is killing the opposition parties, it is our performance. We in the APC are performing better than they ever expected,” he said.
Sule also boasted that president Bola Tinubu would win the 2027 presidential election citing his economic reforms that have been beneficial to Nasarawa State.
His economic reforms have brought a lot of benefits to Nasarawa State, he said.
Governor Sule also reacted to the controversy surrounding the early endorsement ahead of the 2027 election saying his predecessor, Umaru Al-Makura did not bring him into office or pick him from the dustbin.
He said the former Governor guided him into politics, but he is not his godfather.
He was supporting me when I was coming into office. He didn’t pick me out of the dustbin, he picked me to be the group managing director of a listed company.
“He’s not my godfather. He was my political mentor. The truth of the matter is that Senator Al-Makura also as an individual, had a preferred aspirant and he has the right to have a preferred aspirant.
“And his preferred aspirant may not be my preferred aspirant, because of the fact that they come from two different zones. And I believe then, I believe now, I believe tomorrow that it will not be fair to go back to his own that has just finished 12 years. That’s my rationale.”
