Senator Neda Imasuen (APC, Edo South), Chairman of the Senate Committee on Ethics, Code of Conduct and Public Petitions, has publicly congratulated Professor Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda on his elevation to the position of *National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC)*.
Imasuen described Yilwatda—a former Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and seasoned technocrat of Plateau State—as a figure of “brilliance, integrity, and a deep commitment to party unity and growth.” He added that Yilwatda’s emergence comes at a crucial juncture and holds the promise of renewing the APC’s fortunes at the national level.
He noted Yilwatda’s rich background as an engineer, technocrat, and reform‑driven politician, including his candidacy in the 2023 Plateau State governorship election, as evidence of his capacity for leadership and governance.
Imasuen also acknowledged that Yilwatda assumes the role following the resignation of Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, who stepped down on health grounds. He extended well‑wishes for wisdom, clarity, and success, expressing confidence in Yilwatda’s ability to guide the APC toward unity, strategic growth, and electoral victories.
Senator Neda Imasuen has warmly endorsed Professor Yilwatda’s appointment, underscoring his belief that Yilwatda brings the expertise, vision, and unity-making capability the APC needs at a pivotal moment. The former minister’s emergence is seen by Imasuen as a strategic opportunity to align the party more closely with President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope agenda and reinvigorate its national presence.
