He noted that party unity and cohesion remain central to its strength ahead of the next election cycle.
Speaking at the event, the APC Women Leader in the state, Aishatu Abubakar Gunabi, said the party remains united and strong, adding that it will continue to show solidarity with both the state governor and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, while urging political office holders to meet public expectations.
