United Kingdom chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has commended the decision of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to extend campaigns for the 2019 presidential and federal legislative polls.
Mr Jacob Ogunseye, spokesperson of the chapter, in a statement on Tuesday in Abuja, said the extension will help the party reach out to undecided electorate.
He also stated that President Muhammadu Buhari was unbeatable because of his track records of developmental achievements.
According to him, the president’s achievements in all sectors of the country’s economy will speak for him anytime any day and will secure the votes of Nigerians for him.
He added that while political parties and candidates could resume campaigns forthwith, electioneering must end by midnight of Thursday.
Ogunseye, while commending the electoral commission for the decision, said it was an opportunity for the APC and all its candidates to shore up their winning chances ahead of the rescheduled elections.
He said that the preparedness of the APC and its candidates for the elections was, however, not in doubt while INEC’s decision to lift the embargo was an added advantage to it.
“INEC decision to extend campaigns is good for us; we only hope they are prepared for the election this time around.
“As President Buhari has said, APC candidates have no reason to be afraid of loosing elections because the party has enough support base, haven visited the 37 states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to campaign.
“Victory is indeed ours in the coming elections,” Ogunseye said.
He, however, urged party members across the country to use the opportunity presented by the extension and the days ahead to ensure that no stone was left unturned.
