Thousands of All Progressives Congress women have held a massive rally in Abuja to throw their weight behind Asiwaju Bola and Rev Yakubu Pam as the party’s presidential flagbearers.
The coalition of APC women, drawn across the country, said that Tinubu is assured of success at the polls with the Executive Secretary of the Nigeria Christian Pilgrim Commission as running mate.

Speaking on behalf of the women, national convener, Lady Princess Ajibola, hailed Tinubu as an “epitome of prosperity and good governance, a great force to reckon with, and the right candidate to continue the sail of the affairs of Nigeria to greater heights”.
She, however, said that in order for the APC candidate to fulfil his mandate, he must pick the strongest possible running mate.
And according to the APC women, Rev Pam tops the pile being a “quintessential leader, a teacher and a peace lover”.
Ajibola added, “He is a man who has never taken his service in God’s vineyard for granted, he has been serving faithfully since 2020 and still is, even till now.
“Rev Yakubu Pam has proven himself an excellent man, a man of good faith and integrity before his appointment as the executive secretary of the Nigerian Christian Pilgrimage Commission.
“The Coalition of APC women is asking us to go for a man that his influence cut across many sectors in Nigeria, a man who understands what pain is, and a man that is neither consumed with pride nor seek self-gratification. An altruistic man that so much detests bigotry, and nepotism”.
The women, therefore, pledged to mobilise millions of their members across the country to vote for the Tinubu/Pam ticket in 2023.
