“We have identified where our problems lie, and we are more united to overcome them. The result of our unity will manifest more in the Area Council elections and the general elections come 2027,” Dr. Mahmoud stated.
The Minister affirmed that the creation of Youth and Women Secretariat in FCT Administration (FCTA) by President Bola Tinubu was a deliberate and strategic attempt to carry the youth and women along in the FCT.
She emphasized that the large crowd of party faithful was a testament to the unwavering commitment to the growth, unity, and success of APC and the progress of FCT and the nation.
Also, speaking on the meeting, APC FCT Chairman, Hon. Abdulmalik Usman, commended stakeholders for their tireless efforts in ensuring that the party remained united.
