I’m ready to work as LG chairman — Isa Yuguda

Former governor Isa Yuguda of Bauchi State has said that he is ready to work as chairman of local government if his people want him to do so.

Yuguda said this Wednesday night when he hosted a meeting of the Central Working Committee (CWC) of the Presidential Support Committee, a platform coordinating over 4000 APC support groups for the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari, led by its National Coordinator, Sen. Godswill Akpabio.

The former governor made the statement to express his readiness to take on any role to ensure victory for President Buhari come February 16, 2019.

He said, “We are very confident that you (Akpabio) have what you need to succeed. You have no reason to fail. At the end of the day, we appreciate what we have done. As you did say, it’s not about positions you held, it’s about how effective you will be.

“Whatever position you are holding, be effective. I’m prepared to work as a local government chairman now, having been a two-time minister, two-time governor and a managing director of two banks. So, if I’m given job of chairman of a local government today, and my people want me to serve them, I will do that.

“We should humble ourselves. It’s not about position, no, we don’t have time. Let’s just work together as a family, let’s deliver.”

The PSC national coordinator and former governor of Akwa Ibom, Akpabio, who said women and youth were also critical to the impending victory of President Buhari, promised that the efforts of the campaigners would be rewarded.
