He said that the state and country would find it difficult to make any meaningful progress in the absence of faithfulness and unity in the country.
“I want to appeal members of APC, to first of all be faithful to the party.
“When we started this party in 2014, a lot of people were calling us all sort of names that how we were going to win an election at the state and national levels when we didn’t have anything to go by.
“But our God made sure it happened and we won the elections at the state and at the national levels.
“Now it is time to re-engineer our party for more successes, and the most important thing in any successful endeavour, is to bring people together.
“Once you don’t bring people together, you will be lost and loose election.
“That is what any politician would not like to experience,” he said.
Abdullahi also enjoined the members to be disciplined and unite themselves, for other countrymen and women to see them as united forces and rely on them to lead them.
“Without unity of purposes and discipline within the party, there is no way Nigerians can trust us with their future.
“Therefore,I am here,and have registered my membership card in my polling unit; and I admonish all members of our great party to eschew the bitterness; come together as the party members to build a nation; better future for our people in the areas of prosperity, development and human progress.
“Without unity, nothing is possible. With the unity,everything is possible, hence I admonish all of us to remain focus to our future mission,” he urged.
The senator, who commended the supervising team from National headquarters of the party, led by Prof. Sani Yahaya, noted that their efforts and sacrifices had made the exercise a successful one in the state.
“Secondly, I want to appreciate Prof. Yahaya, who is fromTaraba state, a committed member of our party, who is leading the committee which has been set up by the party Caretaker Committee of our great party for coming to our state to supervise the success of the registration and revalidation of membership card of the APC.
“This is the exercise that was mandated by the leadership of our party in order to make sure that the party is being organized from the grassroots up to the national convention.
“We are reviewing the party so that we can remain competitive against other parties in the forthcoming 2023 general elections,” the leader said.
