The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, has expressed his admiration for President Bola Tinubu, stating that he is learning the art of politics from him. Yilwatda made this statement on Saturday after being conferred with the traditional title of “Kaeh-rit” (meaning “the good seed of Ampang East”) in Plateau State.
According to Yilwatda, President Tinubu is an exemplary leader and one of the best politicians in Nigeria, making him an ideal person to learn from. Since being taken under Tinubu’s wing, Yilwatda claims to have gained valuable knowledge and insights into the world of politics. He expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to learn from the president, stating that his success is a direct result of Tinubu’s guidance.
The APC National Chairman also commented on the recent defection of Governor Caleb Mutfwang to the APC, expressing hope that this move would bring benefits to the state. Yilwatda emphasized the party’s inclusive membership policy, highlighting that all members have equal rights within the party.
This is the second traditional title bestowed upon Yilwatda in two weeks, following a similar honor conferred by the Tiv Nation in Benue State in recognition of his humanitarian services. The APC chairman’s latest title is a testament to his growing influence and reputation in Nigerian politics.
As the APC continues to navigate the country’s complex political landscape, Yilwatda’s relationship with President Tinubu is likely to remain a significant factor in shaping the party’s strategy and direction. With the APC’s national chairman learning from one of Nigeria’s most experienced politicians, the party may be poised for future success. The implications of Governor Mutfwang’s defection and the party’s inclusive membership policy will also be closely watched in the coming months.
