Vote Tinubu For Massive Transformation - APC Professionals Charges Nigerians

The forum stated this during a courtesy visit to the National Chairman at the APC National Secretariat Abuja on Tuesday, 16th August, 2022.

Leader of the forum and former Governor of Bauchi state, Isa Yuguda, said just like he did in Lagos, a Tinubu-led APC national government in 2023 would consist of head-hunted qualified Nigerians who would deliver efficiency in government.

Yuguda stated: "We came to pay a courtesy visit to the leadership of the party, to congratulate them on their assumption of office and to let them know who we are as an appendage of the national party. It does appear that all sectors of our economy are made up of professionals.

"Beside, we spoke about the need to put square pegs in square holes when the government at the centre is formed. This has become very important to us because failure to put the right person in the right position is a recipe for failure. The whole essence of this professional forum is to move our country forward and we believe the government will leverage on them to put right pegs in right holes and I believe within a very short time the difference will be clear.

"Our focus is national development and we have disinformation and misinformation down the line. But with professional journalists in our ranks we can help in the dissemination of information to the lowest strata of the society. Those of us who are seasoned politicians would help in ensuring the balance between the three arms of government: the legislature, judiciary and executive to ensure everyone works for the country.

"There has never been a time in the history of this country where professionals came together as a body and say 'okay we want to contribute our own quota to the development of the government.' They are always picked in bits and pieces but now we have them as professionals who will ensure that they proffer answers to the challenges facing the country.ÔÇØ

Yuguda continued: "Also, we spoke about the retreat with members of the NWC to hear the views from outside our own cycle. This is to ensure that no one arrogates to himself the monopoly of knowledge and wisdom. If there is a pool of knowledge that people are willing to share with you, you must be willing to learn because after all it's about better management, better party leadership to ensure we address the problems that are confronting us. Much as every member of the working committee are highly experienced, the system is dynamic and therefore if you have a group of professionals who are willing to share with you then it will be better.

"The other one is the town hall meeting with our presidential candidate through the vehicle of the forum that we are going to hold with him will address us and by extension all Nigerians because we are a group representing the poor people down the line and he is going to be the president for the poor people and the need for him to have an interactive session between him and the APC Professionals Forum. I think this will make all the difference because he needs this communication. The silence will not help us much, we need to be talking to Nigerians because there are a lot of misinformation and stories in the social media which are fake. And when our candidate comes to the forum and some of these issues are raised of course he can answer them one after the other.ÔÇØ
