Nasarawa APC gov candidate Wadada appeals for unity after primaries

Ahead of the 2027 general elections, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress in Nasarawa State, Ahmed Wadada, has appealed to aspirants who did not emerge victorious in the recently concluded primaries to remain in the party. Wadada, who currently represents Nasarawa West Senatorial District in the National Assembly, made the appeal during a press conference on Monday in Lafia, the state capital. According to him, the APC remains a large and accommodating party that is strong enough to accommodate the diverse aspirations and opinions of its members ahead of the 2027 elections. He expressed commitment to building a government that is transparent, accountable, inclusive and focused on measurable results if elected. Wadada said, “I also appeal to anyone who may feel disappointed or who may be contemplating leaving our party to reconsider. The APC remains a large and accommodating family, strong enough to accommodate our diverse aspirations and opinions. “Let us not create divisions where unity is needed. Let us not weaken what we have collectively built over the years. The bigger task before us now is to prepare for the 2027 general election and continue the journey of development, peace, stability and prosperity already being advanced in our state. “We shall prioritise the welfare of our people, strengthen institutions, expand economic opportunities, empower our youth and women, support farmers and entrepreneurs, and create an enabling environment for investment and sustainable growth.” Wadada noted that his vision for Nasarawa State is encapsulated in the HEARTS Agenda, which represents his commitment to people-centred governance and sustainable development. He said the components of the HEARTS Agenda include Human Capital Development, Economic Enhancement, Agriculture, Rural Transformation, Technology and Investment, and Security.
