I, *Musa Hassan Ubandoma*
_Ubandoman Azara, Magajin Malan Fika, Baraden Rugwagu, Danmalikin Kantana, Wakilin Birnin Bolewa, and Garkuwan Tudun Gaji_
National Coordinator,
*AREWA PROGRESSIVES FOR TINUBU & APC 2027*
It is with immense joy, pride, and unwavering confidence that I stand before you today to speak of a man of *Vision, Courage, Humility, and Dedication* β our Leader and true Servant of the people of Nasarawa State, under the banner of our great party, the *APC*.
As the African proverb says, *"A leader is like a shepherd; he stays behind the flock, letting the most nimble go out ahead, whereupon the others follow, not realizing that all along they are being directed from behind."*
Sen. Aliyu Ahmed Wadada embodies this wisdom. He is a leader who understands the trials and aspirations of the common people of Nasarawa State.
He believes, as *Nelson Mandela* taught us, that *"Leadership is not about the next election, itβs about the next generation."*
To him, Leadership is *NOT about power*, but about *Service, Sacrifice, Unity, Development, and Progress*. In the words of *Abraham Lincoln*, *"Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a manβs character, give him power."* Sen. Wadada has been tested, and he has chosen the path of service.
The people of Nasarawa State deserve a man of *Positive Action* β for our Youths, Women, Elders, Farmers, Business owners, Students, and for the holistic development of our dear state. Sen. Aliyu Ahmed Wadada is that answer.
As our Hausa elders say, *"Idan ka ga dabino ya yi yawa, ka san wanda ya shuka shi ya yi hakuri"* β _When you see abundant dates, know that the planter was patient._ His patience, consistency, and commitment are now yielding results for our people.
My dear people of Nasarawa State, *this is the hour for Transformation*. This is the time to rally behind a man of *Positive Action, Wisdom, Capacity, and a Heart for the People*. Sen. Wadada has demonstrated an unshakable commitment to *Peace, Education, Development, and Greater Opportunities* for the next generation.
As *John F. Kennedy* reminded us, *"A nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people."* Let us judge by his works, and let our judgment be unity.
Let us therefore remain *United, Peaceful, Focused, and Determined*, for as the proverb goes, *"If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together."*
*VICTORY belongs to the People.*
Together, we shall build a tomorrow where *every person has HOPE*, *every community has a VOICE*, and *every community experiences PROGRESS*.
*IN GOD WE TRUST!*
