Again, what have been his development indices and strides in Nasarawa State? With the increase in allocation gotten by the states today, what has Nasarawa State been able to do or has to show under Governor Sule?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd time and again, we have had grumblings in many quarters about the leadership style of Governor Sule in the state which many frown upon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTherefore, he is not a good ambassador of the party and he is by no means in a position to speak for the North Central region or stakeholders of the party,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He called on all the North Central governors to disassociate themselves from Governor Sule\u2019s endorsement of Ganduje immediately, alleging that whatever he is doing is for his selfish interest and not the interest of the North Central region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMoreover, we all know that Governor Sule is not a firm supporter of President Bola Tinubu, and he will do anything to bring his administration to disrepute and endorsing Ganduje is one of such, since Ganduje has already incurred legal liabilities and other disaffections for the party as the National Chairman.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd even the Edo and Ondo election which Ganduje leadership produced the APC flag bearers could be another mistake as he lacked the legitimacy to do that as his position is being contested and unrecognised, and so his action in Edo and Ondo could be another future legal liability,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About Nigeria Follow Africa-Press<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
