Lawal disclosed that a vote of confidence was unanimously passed by the state executive officers of the party at a meeting yesterday in the state party secretariat in Osogbo on the suitability of Senator Basiru for the office.

He explained that Basiru was one of the first timers in the Senate, who was saddled with the responsibility of a crucial function as the mouth-piece of the Senate, an assignment he was carried out satisfactorily, diligently and flawlessly.

The state APC chairman also stated that the experience gathered in both private and public offices at different times as a lawyer, commissioner, lecturer and Senator would  fortify him to excel as the APC national secretary.
