Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule, has dismissed suggestions that the coalition-supported African Democratic Congress (ADC) could significantly influence the outcome of the 2027 general elections.According to him, the recent embrace of the ADC by opposition figures has ironically made them less effective rather than boosting their political weight. Governor Sule made this known on Friday during a media chat shortly after he paid a visit to the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, at the party’s national headquarters in Abuja. “I am not particularly concerned about the ADC,” Sule said. “From what I gathered, the ADC is not a splinter group from our party, the APC, but rather a breakaway faction from another political party. If that is the case, it means their strength has been reduced. They are not gaining ground — they are actually becoming weaker. So, as far as we are concerned in the APC, we are not worried about them.” The Governor stressed that the APC’s focus has never been on the activities of rival political groups but rather on strengthening its own structures and delivering on its promises to Nigerians. “We have never been overly concerned about the opposition,” he continued. “Our priority is always to focus on our own capacity and strategies — ensuring we fulfil our obligations to the Nigerian people. This is exactly what President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has consistently demonstrated. All APC governors are equally working hard in their respective states to support this administration’s vision, and we will continue to do so.” Sule added that, on a personal level, he avoids getting distracted by the movements of other parties. “I don’t waste time monitoring the internal affairs of other parties. My interest is firmly on what my own party, the APC, is doing to serve the people,” he noted. On Yilwatda’s Appointment as APC Chairman The Governor also spoke about the recent appointment of Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda as the APC National Chairman, describing it as a timely and strategic decision that addresses long-standing concerns in the party’s North-Central zone. “The new chairman is very much in tune with the Renewed Hope Agenda. His appointment comes at the right time — exactly when a leader with his qualities is needed. For us in the North-Central zone, who have been calling for the return of the chairmanship to our region, we now have no reason to complain. The position is back in our zone, and that is a welcome development,” Sule affirmed.
Dr. Beta Edu, the former Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, has praised Nigerian workers for their unwavering resilience, dedication, and their invaluable contributions to the development of the nation, describing them as the “engine of the nation.” In her May Day message addressed to Nigerian workers, which she personally signed, Edu emphasized that the occasion is not only a celebration of the workers’ achievements but also a reminder of the essential role they play in the lives of millions of Nigerians. “I celebrate and acknowledge your tireless efforts, dedication, and contributions in various sectors throughout Nigeria,” she stated. Edu also acknowledged the significant role Nigerian workers play in driving progress and development, particularly under the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. “Your hard work, resilience, and unwavering commitment to advancing the nation’s progress are deeply appreciated,” she remarked. In her message, Edu applauded the government’s initiatives aimed at offering Nigerian workers decent work incentives, including wage awards, fair pay, and improved working conditions. “Let us remain united in solidarity to achieve greater development for our nation, Nigeria, as the government continues to enhance working conditions and introduce further incentives for workers under this administration.” She concluded by stressing that May Day should serve as a day to celebrate workers’ achievements and a reminder of the immense value they bring to millions of Nigerians.
