Another member of the council, and Minister of Defence, General Christopher Gwabin Musa, retd, also expressed absolute confidence that the APC will achieve success at the polls and continue to deliver what he described as robust governance and security nationwide.


The boast elicited immediate knocks from opposition parties and stakeholders, including Alhaji Atiku Abubakar’s African Democratic Congress, ADC; Mr Peter Obi’s Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC; New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP; Social Democratic Party, SDP; and former presidential candidate, Chief Peter Ameh.
