No doubt, it’s a call to duty and I am ready to harness all available machineries to take our dear party to it’s deserving level.”

“Our first assignment as would be to bring unity, love, team spirit and productivity to the party while positioning it for the next Election so that we can Coast to victory. We shall encourage all inclusiveness as this is the only way to foster peace and unity.”

“I hereby accept this call to duty in good faith and implore all members of the party across all states within the zone to support this agenda of unification.”

“I am seeking for your votes, support and prayer in order to move the party to the greater height.

Thank you all and be assured of my total commitments to this assignment.”
