A Chieftain of the All Progressives Party (APC), Philip Agbese, has lauded the party for encouraging youth representation.
Agbese gave the commendation in a statement on Saturday in Abuja against the backdrop of the recent inauguration of state chairmen at the party’s national secretariat.
He noted that the emergence of the chairmen, particularly the Benue State Chairman, Mr Austin Agada, is an indication that the party believes in the youth.
Agbese, who has indicated interest to run for the House of Representatives representing Ado/Okpokwu/Ogbadibo Federal Constituency of Benue State, said the party is setting an example.
He also commended the Minister of Special Duties and Intergovernmental Affairs, Sen. George Akume, for giving youths the needed voice, particularly in Benue State.
The aspirant further lauded Agada for his leadership quality that led to his emergence as the state party chairman.
He added that Agada’s emergence is a testament to his selfless and dedicated contributions to the evolution and development of the party.
He urged him to make the reconciliation of aggrieved members a priority.
While pledging support to the newly-inaugurated executive of APC in Benue, Agbese said he would do all within his powers to ensure that the constituency is returned to the APC in the next general elections.
