APC’s REGISTRATION: CHANGE IS HERE, SAYS PROGRESSIVE GOVERNORS FORUM The Progressive Governors Forum (PGF) has promised Nigerians that the newly- registered All Progressives Congress (APC) will listen to them and respond by including their yearnings in its operations. Celebrating yesterday’s registration in a press statement, the governors described the day of registration as one that will go down in the history of Nigeria as a day of unity for all progressive and patriotic Nigerians. “It is the glorious day that the banner behind which all Nigerians will file in our march to greatness was hoisted,”they said. “It is a day when the flame of patriotic optimism was kindled in the hearts of all Nigerians who desire a brighter future for our nation.” Commending the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)for its sense of responsibility and courage for upholding the constitution and the provisions of the Electoral Act 2010 as amended, the governors further described the occasion as a victory for the party faithful across the nation, democrats, and indeed for all Nigerians. “With this landmark achievement, the task ahead is to accelerate the process of the consummation of party building and organisation from the grassroots, up to the wards, local governments, states and the entire country. Our great party, in the spirit of inclusion, will be commencing the process of securing the input of Nigerians at the grassroots in our plans.” The governors urged all Nigerians to take advantage of this opportunity to be part of this movement for change by becoming members of the APC. The statement was jointly signed by Governor Kashim Shettima, Borno State; Adams Oshiomhole, Edo State; Kayode Fayemi, Ekiti State; Rochas Okorocha, lmo State; and Babatunde Raji Fashola, Lagos State
