Bello, who made the promise on Thursday in Lokoja during a stakeholders meeting of the All Progressives Congress ( APC), also appealed to the people of the state not to lose hope in his administration.

According to him, the recent reconciliation of the two factions of the party in the state is also a pointer to a better tomorrow for the state.

Bello said his outstanding achievement was in the area of security where he said he was able to banish armed robbery, kidnapping and thuggery from the state.

“I confronted these ugly incidents headlong, and today the story has changed.

” We were able to institute infrastructure and integration of people into the administration that has been operating without sentiment.

He called on party members to remain committed and dedicated to its ideals, saying that this was the only way for it to emerge victorious in the coming governorship election.

Two serving governors and a former governor attended the meeting where party members reiterated their preference for indirect primary to pick a candidate for the Nov. 16 governorship polls.

” Gov. Yahaya Bello is a dynamic leader that the party is ever proud of.

“He remains a gift of Providence that should be supported all the time ,” Bagudu said.

The APC state Chairman, Alhaji Abdullai Bello, said that the party performed a rare feat in the last general elections when it won all the 25 seats in the state assembly.

According to him, the party also won seven out of the nine House of Representatives positions and two out of the three senatorial seats available in the state.

He commended members for making this possible, but warned against being carried away by the euphoria, as Bello must be returned for a second term in office to complete the good works he started in 2016.

A former factional Chairman of the party, Mr Haddi Ametuo, said that the division in the party had been amicably resolved by Gov. Bello.

According to him, the party is now one under the leadership of Abdulahi Bello as the state Chairman.
