"I’m learning from the best leader, Asiwaju Tinubu.Mr. President is one of the best politicians you can learn from, and since adopting me as his son, I’ve learned so much from him. 

"He is teaching me, and so I’m learning. So if you see me succeeding, it’s because I’m learning from the very best politician ever produced in Nigeria. So why not? I will work towards achieving what he has done also, being one of the best politicians in Nigeria", Nentawe stated.

"Plateau gains by having the governor, having the national chairman of the party in the state, having the National Assembly, having the House of Assembly, having local government chairmen, and having everybody in the structural governance of the party in the state under one party.
"The person that comes in APC today has an equal right with the person who has been there for a thousand years, because we do not differentiate our membership.

"Some people will claim that if you go to the party, they will say they are the original owners of the party and that they have been there for a number of years.

"We don’t have that in APC. As a government steps in with its own supporters, we will now have one single family that will work together for the benefit of Plateau. 

"The essence of the issue is that the national budget will influence it and the local government will influence it, so that all our structures, from the national level down to the local government, are structured for the benefit of the people of Plateau."

"Government will embark on massive and robust engagement with all stakeholders with the aim to educate and enlighten people on how the tax reform law work", Yilwatda added.
