Youth group backs Mai Mala Buni, cautions against illegality

-



The Progressive Youth Agenda has put its weight behind Yobe State Governor, Hon. Mai Mala Buni, warning that claims about his removal as Caretaker Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress constitute a breach of law.


Many people were surprised earlier in the week as Niger State Governor, Alhaji Abubakar Sani Bello paraded himself as the Acting Chairman of the party, brewing speculations about the removal of Mai Mala Buni.


The Progressive Youth Agenda in a press conference on Thursday led by Comrade Jabir Aminu Maiturare its National Coordinator however urged the public, especially members of the APC to shun claims about the removal of Mai-Mala Buni until his return as he still remains Chairman of the party's Caretaker Committee.


“Progressive Youth Agenda condemns the incessant breach of law by some members of the party claiming to have removed the Caretaker Chairman of the All Progressive Congress APC Mai Mala Buni, which we consider as a nonchalant act and that we the progressive Youth cannot accept anything short of what only the NEC can decide,” Maiturare said.


“We are calling on the general public most especially the members of our great Party APC to shun all these claims pending the return of the Chairman of the Caretaker and Extraordinary Convention Mai Mala Buni as he is out of the country but keep in mind that he is still the Chairman Caretaker Committee.”


The youth group also praised Mai Mala Buni, noting he has performed exceedingly well and moved the APC forward.


“We all know what the Chairman of the Caretaker Committee and Extraordinary Convention has laid a good foundation for the progress of our dear Party APC ever since Governor Mai Mala Buni-led caretaker committee took charge of the party a lot has changed, via his hardwork, he has put efforts to bridge gaps between members of the party and has reached out to aggrieved members for reconciliation and full participation in the activities of the party. This has restored harmony and no doubt, built a solid foundation for peace and progress of the party.


“The APC has also witnessed mass joining of the party by prominent and important Nigerians that included 3 serving Governors. This has boosted the APC, making it the largest political party in Nigeria. All these are attributed to the purposeful leadership provided by President Muhammadu Buhari, the most remarkable Performance of the Mai Mala Buni-led committee since its creation and its ability to embrace all and sundry.


“The Caretaker Committee led by Governor Buni has successfully conducted ward, local government and states congresses, after which, it listened to and resolved appeals from aggrieved contestants as a step in preparing the party for hitch free Conventions.



“The APC’s constitution review is another gigantic step that is aimed at guiding the affairs robustly by establishing a new basis for strong internal democracy through several new clauses in the APC amended constitution, thereby making the party the most democratic of all existing political parties in the country.



“No doubt, the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led caretaker committee has been effective and productive with so many success stories and achievements that are there for history and posterity to judge.


“It is consequently on the scorecard of these remarkable and outstanding achievements that the Progressive Youth Agenda calls on all members to remain calm and focused as we await the next NEC and the Conventions to be held under the leadership of Gov. Mai Mala Buni.”

AREWA YOUTH FOR LIBERTY (AYFL) Condemns DAPPMAN’s Actions, Declares Full Support for Dangote Refinery

The Arewa Youth for Liberty (AYFL) strongly condemns the recent actions of the Depot and Petroleum Products Marketers Association of Nigeria (DAPPMAN) against the Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals Company. We view this as an act of sabotage and outright hostility toward the Nigerian people, who stand to benefit greatly from the refinery’s efforts to reduce fuel prices and provide massive employment opportunities. Dangote Refinery has invested heavily in the growth and development of Nigeria’s oil sector, including spending over ₦3 trillion to acquire trucks that will ensure nationwide distribution of petroleum products at reduced costs. Rather than commend and collaborate with Dangote Refinery in its efforts to ease the hardship caused by rising fuel prices, DAPPMAN and its allies, including NUPENG, appear determined to frustrate these positive strides. If such hostile actions by DAPPMAN continue, AYFL will have no option but to resist and confront any individual, group, or...
