He also said that the party would be involved in all subsequent elections and urged Nigerians to trust APDA as the best alternative party in the country.

Shitu added that the NEC also resolved to start harmonisation of its state chapter structures to get every stakeholder to be fully involved in the party’s activities and take ownership of it.

On the issue of restructuring, Shitu said one of the party’s manifesto items was the restructuring of the county.

“APDA believes in restructuring for development and not for the division of Nigeria.

” We believe in restructuring where various state resources will be used to the advantage of such states in terms of its development," he said.
