Felix Hyat, the director-general of the Allied People’s Movement National Campaign Council, has urged party stakeholders to intensify grassroots mobilisation toward Mr Seyi Makinde’s victory in the 2027 presidential election.

Mr Hyat made the call on Tuesday in Abuja at a meeting with APM leaders and stakeholders from his Kaduna South senatorial district.

Mr Hyat also urged Nigerians to allow the party’s presidential candidate to salvage Nigeria from its difficult situation. He said that many Nigerians were experiencing hard times which required a person like Mr Makinde to rescue them.

Mr Hyat described Makinde as “a silent performer whose achievements are written in the annals of history.

“With Makinde in the lead, we shall rescue Nigeria. He has the capacity. He is well known, and with Lawan Daura, a security expert, as his vice, the duo can rescue Nigeria from its security challenges.

“As stakeholders, we must all rise to the occasion and exert all our might; we must campaign vigorously to ensure that citizens come out en masse to vote for Makinde,” he stated.

Mr Hyat said that Makinde has traits of former President Umaru Yar’Adua, who was known for his quiet disposition and notable achievements.

According to him, Nigerians must respect the gentlemanly agreement on power rotation by voting for Makinde to complete the South’s eight-year term.
