The All Progressives Congress (APC) State Executive has embarked on empowering 2,500 ward executives with N20,000 each in Yobe State preparatory to the 2023 general election.
The party ward executives empowered were from the Damaturu, Gujba, Gulani, Fika, Fune, Nangere and Potiskum areas of the state.
The State APC Chairman, Mohammed Gadaka was among the APC State Executives that witnessed and went around the respective local government areas for the disbursement of the empowerment package, aimed at boosting their financial capability.
Speaking in Potiskum and Fika local government areas, Muhammad Gadaka said that the empowerment is meant to assist the ward executive who have immensely contributed in one way or the other towards the victory of the party in the State.
The chairman further charged the executive to come out in large numbers during the 2023 general elections and cast massive votes for Governor Buni, Tinubu/ Kashim and all other APC candidates in the state at large.
“I’m calling on all APC eligible members who are yet to obtain their Permanent Voters Card (PVC) to do so without further delay. It is by so doing that you could ensure the party’s victory at the polls,” Gadaka said.
He assured the APC members that many empowerment packages are coming up, especially for the women, as according to him, Governor Mai Mala Buni is set to empower 8,000 women in the state.
Gadaka however, described the gesture as, “unprecedented and very timely” while expressing joy and hope that the empowerment given to them would make the desired positive impact on the living conditions of members.
They also pledged to vote for Governor Mai Mala Buni and the APC Presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu/Kashim Shettima and other APC candidates in the state during the forthcoming general elections.
