By Aminu Ahmed Garko, Minna

He said that the task ahead was for the new leadership of the party to set in motion political mechanisms that would continue to promote the lofty ideals of the party, especially at the grassroots.
” I strongly advocate that the party should bring on board season and committed progressives who are capable hands and understand the ideal of change mantra which the party stand for during its campaign periods, he said.
He said that it was only by so doing that eligible electorate would be mobilised to cast their votes to all the party candidates in general elections.
Bago said that the party came out stronger after its convention because of maturity demonstrated by the party founding fathers.
”President Buhari has proved beyond reasonable doubt to be honest, committed progressive in meeting the desire needs of Nigerians irrespective of political party differences,” he said.
The lawmaker lauded Buhari for his commitment in the fight against corruption, cattle rustling, militancy and Boko Haram insurgency.
He also called on politicians to play responsible politics and preach the principles of tolerance and understanding to ensure free, fair and credible elections.
