Shortly after receiving the appointment, Hon. Tanko expressed profound appreciation to the Speaker for the confidence reposed in him, describing it as a call to greater service. He pledged to work in close synergy with party leaders, political stakeholders, government appointees, youths, women, and other support groups to build a formidable campaign structure aimed at delivering overwhelming victories for Rt. Hon. Berger Alfred Emberga and Governor Hyacinth Iormem Alia in the 2027 general elections.
The appointee assured the Speaker of his unflinching loyalty and commitment, promising an inclusive, issue-based, and result-oriented campaign that would strengthen the All Progressives Congress (APC) across Benue State. He also called on party members and supporters to remain united behind the party’s vision.
The appointment takes immediate effect and is seen as a strategic move reflecting the Speaker’s confidence in Hon. Tanko’s leadership qualities and dedication to the APC. The statement was signed by Zape Michael Upaa, Chief Press Secretary to the Speaker.
