Nigerians will still vote APC in 2023 – Masari boasts

Aminu Masari, governor of Katsina state, has boasted that the All Progressives Congress (APC) will win the 2023 general election.

Masari told journalists on Wednesday after he inaugurated a hostel named after him at Al-Hikmah University in Kwara State, that those saying it would be difficult for the ruling party to win “don’t know what they are saying at all”.

“Those saying it will be difficult for the APC to win the forthcoming election, they don’t know what they are saying at all,” he said.

“The fundamental thing is that the issue affecting this country has global dimensions. The whole world is facing a crisis and inflation.

“America is going under the worst inflation in the last 40 years, likewise Ghana, Niger, and our neighbouring countries. We have to appreciate what is going on in the world before we unnecessarily criticise an issue that is global. The issues we have are beyond what one country can solve.”

Masari said every citizen has a role to play in helping the authorities address the challenges facing the country. “I consider this as a passing phase in our development journey,” he said.

“Countries that are over 400 years old are still facing some crisis. When did the Irish and British overcome theirs? See, we have history to learn and borrow from and we should pray for our leaders to do what is right. But all of us should know that we have a role and contribution to make.”
