Chairman, Advisory Committee of the body and National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) Chairman, Buba Marwa, said the APC candidates were the preferred candidates in the 2023 general election. He said the target of mobilising 60 women of voting age with their passport photographs and relevant details across the 176,846 polling units in the country is both laudable and achievable by November 2022.

Marwa, who urged the group to get down to work by partnering other support groups, said: “It is essential to be strategic in our approach, with an enduring and credible structure in all the wards and polling units.

“As the chairman of the advisory committee for this group, | urge you to remain committed, steadfast, and focused on success in 2023. I am prepared and available to share practical ideas with you based on my wealth of experience,” the NDLEA chairman, who was represented by the former director general of the agency, Otumba Lanre Ipinmisho.

Minister of State, Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs, Sharon Ikeazor, said the group has a massive work cut out ahead for it. She promised to “give you all my support.”
