In what appears to be a twist of events in the political arena, a group of North westerners who are staunch supporters of Hon Makki Yalleman have thrown their weight behind the APC consensus candidates for the leadership of the national assembly and are drumming support the Tajudeen Abbas / Benjamin Kalu ticket.

In an open letter addressed to the national chairman of the All Progressive Congress, the group cited several reasons why their principal Rt. Hon Makki Yalleman and the entire group of North western supporters have decided to support the Tajudeen Abbas/ Benjamin Kalu ticket.


Below is a copy of the letter as sighted by our correspondent.

Rt. Hon. Makki Yalleman is a firm Believer in Party Supremacy, drum support for Tajudeen/Kalu ticket


In any political contestations, political party is supreme. In every modern democracy, Political parties organize politics, which is what induces and strengthen democracies and make it flourish. The supremacy of party politics cannot be overemphasize, because,
Political parties select candidates, Mobilize voters, Facilitate governance, and lastly, Monitor the opposing party when it happens to be in power

As s group of staunch APC supporters from the the northwest, we want to uphold the principle of party supremacy, by aligning with the decisions of the National Executive Committee NEC, of the APC, which is the highest decision making body. The zoning arrangements as announced is not only timely, but commendable.

As s group, which had worked assiduously for the emergence of Rt Hon Abubakar Makki Yalleman, to emerge Speaker of the 10 House of Representatives, we want to make the following categorical statement.

1. Hon Makki is truly a devout party man, a team player who understands and respects party supremacy.

2. Hon Makki is the first to shelve, or set aside his Speakership ambition in total respect and loyalty to the decision of the party.

3. Despite his home state of Jigawa (Northwest Zone) contributing huge number of votes to ensure victory for the party, and being eminently qualified, to him party's unity comes first.

4. Hon. Makki, in the spirit of sportsmanship has personally reached out to the endorsed candidates, Hon Abass and Hon Kalu, and congratulated them and promised to work for their victory.

5. As a peace loving and amiable parliamentarian, he underscores the significance of national unity and cohesion have been at the forefront teaching out to aggrieved members, who seemingly lost out to see reason and work for the success of the party.

6. The dust raised by the party's decision is threatening and seek thwart its victory. Reports of an alliance between some rogue or aggrieved members of our party, was one reason Hon Makki has been working hard to make them see reason and stick to the party.

7. Hon Makki, as a true democrat and an açcomplished parliamentarian, understand the challenges before the country is beyond leadership of National Assembly. In a Representative Democracy, any elected member, regardless his position can bring unprecedented succour via astute legislation to his immediate constituents. You don't have to be Speaker, to make meaningful impact on your constituents.

8. Hon Makki, as a mark of honour remain among the few Reps Member who has immense respect for his governor, HE Muhammad Badaru Abubakar who is a founding member of the APC. Therefore, will not be party to jettison its zoning arrangements.

9. Hon Makki's unique style of representation, especially youth empowerment and engagement remain one of the best, as it was all inclusive.

10. Hon Makki is no doubt, a shining light in the 9th Assembly. He has to his credit, numerous landmark Bills he sponsored and several others he co-sponsored. He has made his mark, both in and out of the Lower House, and has a greater propensity to even do more in the 10th Assembly.

11. Hon Makki, has distance himself ànd wont be party to an form of protest, revolts and unholy alliances with either the opposition or any other interest, outside the purview of party decisions.

Lastly, as a group, we want to congratulate the endorsed candidates, Hon. Tajudeen Abass, and Hon Benjamin Kalu. We equally call on everyone one to set aside their interest and work for the unity and victory of the party, to make the 10th Assembly and country a better place.

Sign

Comrade Auwalu Shuaibu Gumel
