The Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Downtown Stream and Leader of the Northern Caucus in the Green Chamber, Alhassan Ado Doguwa, has said Northern Nigeria has a responsibility to support President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid and ensure the victory of other All Progressives Congress, APC, candidates.

Doguwa stated this in a statement he personally signed, describing support for Tinubu’s second-term ambition as a “moral political obligation” for the people of Northern Nigeria.

“Working for President Tinubu’s re-election is a moral political obligation on the people of Northern Nigeria,” he said.

He added that Northerners must unite in support of the President to sustain peaceful coexistence in the country.

“We must rise individually and collectively to unconditionally vote for Sen. Bola Ahmed Tinubu for a second term for the continuous peaceful coexistence of our great country, Nigeria,” Doguwa said.

He spoke on Saturday when APC members, area supervisors and council advisers from Doguwa paid him a courtesy visit at his residence in Kaduna.

According to the lawmaker, the visit was part of strategic preparations for the forthcoming general elections in his Doguwa/Tudun Wada Federal Constituency.

Doguwa also expressed optimism that Tinubu would secure substantial support from the North in the next election, describing regional votes as crucial to the President’s re-election bid.

He added that the solidarity he receives daily indicates that, despite what he described as propaganda, the North remains firmly behind Tinubu and other APC candidates.
