Earlier, the chairmanship candidate, Swani Buba stressed that his manifesto is not a collection of empty promises but a practical blueprint for the transformation and development of AMAC under the leadership of the Zenith Labour Party.
“Nigerians have learnt their lesson so we will no longer allow their conscience to be bought with money” he stated. I humbly present myself to serve the people of Abuja Municipal Area Council,(AMAC) under the banner of the Zenith Labour Party” he stressed.
Buba also said that ZLP is out to create an inclusive government with adequate representation of all genders and groups.
“My vision is to create a council where government truly reflects the needs of the people, where prosperity is shared and dignity is restored to every citizen. I am out to address the challenges facing AMAC from inadequate housing to poor access to healthcare, underfunded schools to limited opportunities for the youths.”
Buba further pledged to collaborate with the people to transform the council into a better place.
“I am certainly going to win the ruling party and others at the forthcoming Area Council election because I have the backing of the people.
