The Senator representing Benue South Senatorial District and Senate Minority Leader, Comrade Abba Patrick Moro, PhD, on Friday obtained his Expression of Interest and Nomination Form at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) State Secretariat in Makurdi, Benue State.
While addressing members of the State Working Committee and party supporters, Senator Moro pledged to intensify efforts toward securing victory for himself and all PDP flag bearers, insisting that the Government House would be reclaimed by the party in 2027.
He said:
“I am excited to pick the form as the first senatorial aspirant. I came to buy it myself, not through proxy, to show that we are serious.
“I congratulate us for our judicial victory. Naysayers and pessimists said we won’t get a platform to contest election, but today, we are contesting on the platform of PDP, and that alone calls for celebration aside the victories that await us come 2027.
“Government House will increase in 2027. I congratulate those who were nominated by their communities. Those who didn’t get nomination today should be patient, tomorrow is another day. God has time for everything. It is painful to lose nomination or election; it’s not about how many times you fall, but what matters is the ability to rise as long as you fall.
“My name was replaced when I was nominated as minister, the first and second persons who got nominated spent barely two years in office, but I got nomination as federal minister and spent three years.
“I will fight for myself and other PDP flag bearers to win our elections for our party. Zone C is a home of PDP and we shall demonstrate that in the forthcoming general elections.”
Senator Moro assured constituents of Zone C of his continued commitment to quality representation, promised not to disappoint in his legislative duties and political engagements.
