NATIONAL Chairman of All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, has said the Kaduna State governor, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, is gradually implementing the party’s blueprint.

Oyegun said he was happy with the governor’s efforts in the areas of education, health and economy, adding that these would place the state on the path of progress and development.

While commending the state government for the initiative, he said what the governor was doing was in line with the party’s blueprint.

“I am convinced that by the time you finish your tenure as the governor of Kaduna State, we will have a new Kaduna State,” he said.

According to him, “Governor el-rufai is a pride to APC. I am happy that he is sharing the knowledge and ideas to other governors of the APC to use.

“Your plans for Kaduna State in various areas is the best demonstration of what the APC stands for: to facilitate economic growth, create employment and tackle insecurity in the country.

“What you are doing is to show and make sure that Kaduna is well placed as investment destination of choice.  We are happy with the development because anything that happens here will have effect all over the country.

“Investment will not go anywhere without peace and I believe you are working in that direction,” Oyegun said.
