2023: Tambuwal Meets Abuja PDP Delegates, Says There Should Be A Mayor For FCT

Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, a frontline Peoples Democratic Party Presidential aspirant, last night said the Federal Capital Territory deserves a major just like other major cities around the world.

Governor Tambuwal disclosed this during his 2023 Presidential consultative meeting with the FCT delegates of the PDP in Abuja.

The former speaker of the House of Representatives noted that there is a lot of work to be done in the FCT adding that he "believes that the people we met at the FCT deserve more recognition. “

Speaking further, he said, “I am not insisting that FCT should be a state but you appoint ministers, sometimes two from a state, what stops you from appointing a zonal Minister from the FCT because FCT is part of the North Central zone. So if you are appointing an FCT person as Minister to represent the zone, what is wrong with that?

“Because of the Special nature of FCT, there should be a Mayor in the FCT. In major cities in the world, London, California, they have mayors.

“So I understand what the issues are, so what is important is for you to work with us on this campaign train. This is a project to beat in the PDP, the governor stated.

On his part, Hon. Dr Hassan Usman Sokoto, House of Representatives member, Abuja South said the FCT is praying that governor Tambuwal emerges as the PDP’s flag bearer.

“Please, Your Excellency, the leaders must call themselves to order so that if consensus cannot be achieved, once we get to primary, once a level playing ground is given, whosoever emerges but it is our earnest prayer that you emerge but because I don't know tomorrow but every day we are praying that you emerge but whosoever emerge, we hope that others will be able to join him and build this country but by the time we tear ourselves too much, after the primaries, to reconcile is going to be a Herculean task”, he said.

The FCT PDP chairman, Hon. Sunday Dogo Zakka, said the chapter of the party is backing the aspiration of Governor Tambuwal noting that he has been there for the party and it’s time for the party to be there for him.

“You have been there for the party, We will continue to appreciate you because you have been there for us. The party must also be there for you. So we thank you and thank you for your interest. I pray that you will return back safely. People of FCT are solidly behind you. We will not disappoint you.”

Wishing you all the best in your political struggles.

You were a lawmaker, you never introduced or entertained such a bill.


Now you are the last of last candidates you are running heather skelter to speak to the weak.


Thunder punish all Northerners. After 2 tenures they want Islam to be given a consecutive third? For Nigeria to finally tilt their way??


Christ our Lord till 2039!

....and you should be mayor/premier of north-west region while we rightly go back to regionalism in a true federal setting with much more responsibilities on the local govt councils. Everyone has role to play in society cum governance

That's right. Just as Tinubu is the slave master and mayor of Iragbiji.

......when you looting. Corrupt and evil party was in power for 16 years, you never thought anything about Mayor Of Abuja.

.......another one was smiling sheepishly at the pinshure on the wall for 6 years.

May God punish each and every supporters of corrupt and evil politicians that turned around to castigate good, honest and hardworking Nigerians that voted out those thieves.


N:B
If you vote for whoever was your candidate and don't blame others for voting their candidates you are safe, (you have a voting right to vote for whoever you want in power)
But if you campaigned/voted for thieves and looters and turn around to abuse, curse, castigate others for voting for their own candidates, u no go ever end well in this life....Never!
Y'all will die wretched in life.
Fraudulent hypocritical swines and idiots.

Ok

And Minister nko?

Misplaced priorities

Mtchew

This one is just wasting his time.
The bitter truth is that, Tinubu or Atiku will win the 2023 presidential election.
Osibanjo and the rest can not scale through the primaries.

W for wide-mouth

Me too must declare my presidential ambition, since everybody want to be president in this country...please nairalanders and guests please donate 50 million for me to pick PDP forms..this crase most go round

Tambuwa is a joker. After Buhari finished the economy, overthrow the security and enthroned corruption. You want the presidency to still return to the north.

You must be ...

The southerners candidate should beware as the race started.

Big cap thief

Oga wetin ALL NORTHERNERS do you?

and regarding Islam, just because they are Muslims does not mean they are governing in accordance with Islamic rulings. I believe 100% of them don't even think of what Islam says about certain things they are doing.


PLEASE STOP HATING PEOPLE BASED ON YOUR STEREOTYPICAL BELIEFS

There can't be a major and Minister of the FCT. It's either one or the other. Since we're modelled after the US political system, I would say a Mayorial system makes more sense,

You must be referring to Chibok, & stealing of public funds is not corruption under the umbrella of funny colors?

No matter the system, Abuja will still be the same, make a pig up with Victoria Secret, it is still a pig.

Get lost. Everyday you breed criminals and you claim they are not following the real islam.

That stupid narrative only worked on our parents. In a company a serious manager doesn't take constant excuses. He just fires you. If it looks like a duck, barks like a duck,, it's a duck.


You and the devlish religion, get lost.


BTW, mohamed is in hell. If you doubt ask St. Michael or your guardian angel to show you.
