By Sulayman Nafiu, Convener, The Progressive Advocates  

The Progressives Advocates, an esteemed assembly of young intellectuals and professionals hailing from all corners of Nigeria, wholeheartedly and resolutely stand united in support of Senator Ajibola Basiru as the National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC). Our unwavering commitment to promoting the ideology of the progressive party and steadfastly supporting the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu compels us to endorse Senator Basiru as the perfect choice for this pivotal position.

As a core progressive, Senator Basiru possesses an intimate understanding of the intricacies of national politics, honed through his distinguished service as a former senator and ex-spokesperson to the 9th Assembly. His selection as the National Secretary is not merely a stroke of luck; it is the result of recognizing a seasoned leader, a true round peg in a round hole, who will adeptly navigate the complexities of the party and drive it towards an illustrious future.

Beyond his political acumen, Senator Basiru's intellectual prowess elevates him to a class of his own. A brilliant lawyer, accomplished author, and holder of a PhD, his profound knowledge and sagacity are unparalleled. We are captivated by his depth of insight and believe that he will leverage his vast expertise to unite the party, guiding it towards resounding success in all future endeavors. With a network of friends spanning across the nation, Senator Basiru has the power to forge connections that will foster the APC's cohesiveness and pave the way for triumph.

In these times of great promise and pressing challenges, there is no doubt that the APC requires a seasoned and experienced party stalwart like Senator Basiru to serve as the scribe. President Bọla Tinubu's "Renewed Hope" agenda demands a unified and cooperative party, and Senator Basiru is uniquely equipped to spearhead this crucial mission. His appointment is not a matter of convenience; it is a strategic move to ensure the party's triumphant delivery on its promises to the Nigerian people.

As Senator Basiru emerges as the shining star of the APC, he will undoubtedly pose a formidable challenge to the incumbent government of Osun State, led by Governor Ademola Adeleke. We recognize the Governor's attempts to diminish the legacy and prominence of the APC in the state, but with Senator Basiru at the helm, the party's presence will be resolutely reaffirmed, emerging as an indomitable force to reckon with.

In conclusion, The Progressives Advocates extend our heartfelt commendation to the national leaders of the APC for their wisdom in retaining the post in Osun State and for their astute choice of Senator Ajibola Basiru, PhD. As we rally behind this seasoned administrator, we are confident that his dynamic leadership will usher in an era of unity, prosperity, and transformative progress for the party and Nigeria as a whole.
