<\/p>\nMr Sanni David, the National Publicity Secretary of the group, quoted the Chairman of the chapter, Mr Bola Babarinde, as saying this at the APC S\/Africa Victory Gala Dinner held in honour of Buhari in Pretoria, South Africa.<\/p>\n
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that Buhari defeated his closest rival from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, in the Feb. 23 Presidential Election.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe event was to celebrate the APC victory at the just-concluded elections for the President, Governors, National and States Houses of Assembly.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cAPC SA is elated and proud of the way Nigerians voted.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt shows that we, as common people, are averred to corruption and have rejected corruption for a second term of four years,\u2019\u2019 David, in a statement, quoted Babarinde as saying.<\/p>\n
He said that Babarinde described the victory gala dinner as a higher success and that chieftains of the chapter were great assets to the party.<\/p>\n
David added that Babarinde commended Buhari for giving special attention to the fight against Boko Haram and corruption.<\/p>\n
He said that the chairman also sued for peace and called on the government of South Africa to put an end to xenophobic attacks as Africans are one.<\/p>\n
According to David, the dinner was also an occasion to inaugurate the council of elders amongst whom the majority were medical doctors, Ph.D. holders, and astute businessmen and women.<\/p>\n
Also, the publicity secretary quoted Pastor Gladys Adunola, the chapter\u2019s Women Leader, as using the occasion to call on Buhari to ensure that he consolidated on his first term in office.<\/p>\n
The publicity secretary quoted Adunola as saying: \u201cHe (Buhari) is the only hope of the Nigerian masses.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe incoming party\u2019s majority National Assembly members should ensure a smooth and speedy passage of the Diaspora voting bill.\u201d<\/p>\n
David said that APC SA was approved to be established in April 2016 with mandate dated April 2016 and duly signed by the then party Chairman, Chief Odigie Oyegun.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday under the leadership of our indefatigable National Chairman, Comrade Adams Aliu Oshiomhole, we have witnessed a turnaround and see party discipline entrenched on our great party.<\/p>\n
\u201cParty supremacy cannot be underestimated. We thank him for his support and his goodwill message to us through his Chief Press Secretary,\u201d David said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
