Ex-Kwara LG chairmen endorse Saliu Mustapha for chairmanship
Mustapha was Deputy National Chairman of the CPC before the party fused with three other parties to form the APC.
The legacy parties that fused to form the APC were the Action Congress of Nigeria, the All Nigeria Peoples Party and a faction of the All Progressives Grand Alliance led by Sen. Rochas Okorocha.
The News Agency of Nigeria reported that rising from their annual get-together in Ilorin on Wednesday, the former CPC local government chairmen said they believed in the capacity of Mustapha to lead the APC at the national level.
They cited the leadership he provided at the defunct CPC between 2010 and 2015 as a testimony to his qualities.
In a communique read to the media, Chairman, Forum of CPC LGA chairmen, Mahmud Baako, said they received the news of the aspirations of Mustapha with joy.
He described him as a detribalised loyalist of President Muhammadu Buhari, who brought the CPC into Kwara and nurtured it to the point of forming an APC government in the state.
“Saliu Mustapha is the only reason why we have remained in the APC till date. He is a leader with vision and conscience,” the communique stated
