Given the current political landscape and the party’s zoning arrangement, we believe Gizo’s leadership would be instrumental in driving the party’s success in the North Central zone and beyond.
Why Chief Dr. Amos Gizo?
1. Unimpeachable Integrity: Gizo’s reputation remains untarnished, ensuring he can lead the APC without controversy.
2. Party Loyalty and Experience: As a former party chairman of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) in Plateau State and a close confidant to the President, Gizo has demonstrated unwavering loyalty and a deep understanding of party dynamics.
3. Detribalized and Religiously Tolerant: Gizo’s nature makes him an attractive candidate for a party seeking to broaden its appeal across diverse groups.
4. Strategic Positioning: With the presidency likely to prioritize a Christian national chairman from the North Central, Gizo’s close affiliation with the President and his role in galvanizing support within Northern Nigeria’s Christian community make him an ideal candidate.
5. Pioneer of Tinubu’s Presidential Aspirations: As the Chairman of the Movement For the Actualization of Tinubu 2023, birthed in 2019, Gizo played a pivotal role in mobilizing support for President Tinubu’s presidential aspirations, demonstrating his commitment to the party’s ideals and leadership.
6. Politics of No Permanent Friend, No Permanent Enemy: Gizo’s ability to navigate complex political relationships could facilitate crucial alliances, such as potentially luring Plateau State Governor to the APC.
7. Religious Harmony and Balancing: As a Christian from an ethnic minority tribe in Plateau State, Gizo’s candidacy would promote religious harmony and balance within the party, showcasing APC’s commitment to inclusivity.
8. Long-standing Political Experience: Dr. Gizo has been actively involved in national politics since 1976, undertaking various national political activities over the years, demonstrating his dedication and commitment to the party’s ideals.
9. Proven Track Record: Dr. Gizo played a magician’s role with the Plateau delegates in 2022 by ensuring President Tinubu won Plateau, a thought no one imagined considering Sen. Simon Lalong’s stand, the then Governor of Plateau State.
Despite all odds, Chief Gizo delivered all his polling units in his ward and Local Government in the 2023 presidential election.
The SGF’s Position Doesn’t Disqualify North Central
The Secretary to the Government of the Federation’s (SGF) position should not disqualify the North Central zone from producing the APC National Chairman. The region’s contributions to the party’s success and its demonstrated strength warrant consideration for the chairmanship position.
Comparison to Other Contenders
While other party contenders have their strengths, Gizo’s unique combination of integrity, party loyalty, strategic positioning, and commitment to religious harmony sets him apart, making him the best candidate to lead the APC.
We firmly believe that Chief Dr. Amos Gizo is the best candidate to lead the APC as National Chairman. His leadership would revitalize the party, drive success in the North Central zone, and ensure the party’s continued growth and dominance.
