Gov. Mai Mala Buni of Yobe on Tuesday said the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC will win the 2023 election by huge margin with the number of its registered members which he put at over 41 million.

Buni, who is also National Chairman, APC Caretaker and Extra-ordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) spoke at the maiden National Progressives Women Conference in Abuja.

“Today, APC parades over 41 million registered members, asserting our position as Africa’s largest political party and of course, Nigeria’s leading political party.

“With this, we are confident of winning the 2023 general with huge success,” he said.

He, however, cautioned politicians not to see the 2023 general elections as a do or die affair.

He specifically charged women to preach the doctrine of peaceful elections across the country ahead of 2023 general elections.

“You should enlighten your spouses, children, brothers, in-laws, neighbours and the larger society that we must not see election as a do or die affair.

“We should promote peaceful elections and service delivery against personal gains,” he said.

Buni wished the women fruitful deliberations and assured that the APC would continue to support them.

He expressed confidence that the conference would unveil ideas that would improve the fortunes of the APC and support the government of President Muhammadu Buhari in its commitment to improve the lives of Nigerians.

He noted that women no doubt constituted a large proportion of Nigeria’s population, adding that their roles in nation building, political and socio-economic development of the country could not be over emphasised.

“Today, Nigeria proudly parades a good number of women at the Federal and State levels, as well as in political offices serving with excellence.
