''We want him to take over as national chairman with full power, all the state chairmen are behind him.
''We have been clamouring for election because we believe that the only thing that is permanent is change.
''If a man stays in a position for sometimes, it should be with tenure.
''As chapter chairmen and secretaries, we have our own tenure, four years is our tenure'',Dagana said.
